Depth Sync
Depth Sync is the synchronisation layer that runs beneath the ceremony. Two phones join the same session. Both chips tap in. Both people confirm they are present. Only then does the hold begin.
The depth meter fills in silence on both screens. Neither party can see a countdown. They can only feel the weight of staying. When either person ends the hold, the depth achieved is whatever threshold was last crossed. Both chips sign the joint proof. The bond is written and attested on-chain.
Either party can end the hold at any moment. Either party can break the bond later with a solo tap. You can leave a relationship unilaterally. You cannot enter one without the other person present.
