"Replicate the Circularity Toll cross-border. Local revenue funds local operations; small global slice funds spine."
When CircularOS federates internationally (Protocol 013), each country runs its own Circularity Toll (Protocol 036). 80% of toll stays local for that country's spine. 20% routes to the global Spine Trust which funds shared infrastructure (Truth Ledger, H.BLUE, Sovereign Library). Maintains both local autonomy and global durability.
