Providers Terms

Service Providers need to publish a signed service manifest with the prices they charge for provided services. Clients use this to decide which service provider to chose and provider's reputation is established based on the compatibility of their charges to their manifest. Service providers may be required to provide a coin bond which is redeem-able by an entity that can publish a fraud proof. A fraud proof is signed evidence that a provider deviated from its service manifest.
