Emotonomics defined as a field: attention as the source of value, emotion as its measure, protocols as its distribution mechanism — from Smith and Hayek to the general intellect, with axioms, testable propositions, and a full bibliography.

Everything checkable by a stranger with an RPC: the verified LUV contract and its source in two public homes, 21 holders, the price read live from the ETH/LUV pair (X = 6.98 from genesis), a five-finding audit of the LUVLocker liquidity vault, and LUVLockerModern — the OpenZeppelin v5 successor with every finding fixed. Locking is proving.

The emotonomics whitepaper, held to doctoral standards: attention and appreciation as priceless economic quantities, Proof of Gesture as the measurement primitive, the dual-layer abundance/scarcity architecture, axioms, testable propositions, and the strongest objections — Titmuss, Goodhart, plutocracy — answered honestly. From Smith and Mauss to Nakamoto: value creates price, never the reverse.
