How does Tollgate prove every paid answer with Forum TrackRecordV2?

The paying agent treated "How does Tollgate prove every paid answer with Forum TrackRecordV2?" as a source-backed answer, not a free scrape. LeptonWeb Lab: A builder log for Tollgate, showing paid citations, receipt hashes, x402 source access, and creator onboarding on Arc. Forum Protocol: Forum-style mandates bound an agent budget, publish receipts, and make spend controls enforceable instead of advisory. Indie Researcher: A source payment should be tiny, automatic, visible to the creator, and tied to the answer that reused the work. It bought the minimum useful bundle of sources, paid each cited creator in USDC atomic units, and wrote a receipt chain that ties the answer to the citations that earned.
