Onchain Micropayments Digest — Per-citation payments weighted by contribution$0.005 · EV 95%

The source's title is the exact phrase from the question, and the preview explicitly states 'Reward sources in proportion to how much they grounded an answer.' This directly addresses what the term reveals about gas fees or consumption, likely through gas-efficient settlement primitives mentioned in the tags. It's the most targeted source for claim 0. — selected for the claim-aware evidence portfolio (targets claim 1; 0 fetch USDC, 1 attention slot).

Re-evaluate

Sub-claim "What does the term "Per-citation payments weighted by contri…": 10% covered by S1 — S1 describes the concept of weighted payments based on contribution, which is the core mechanism. However, it does not mention gas fees or gas consumption at all. The source is an abstract about a fair payment model, not about gas. No evidence directly answers how this concept relates to gas.

Re-evaluate

The gathered source S1 explains the payment concept but does not address gas. No skipped sources in the provided list appear to directly cover the intersection of weighted per-citation payments and gas fees/consumption. The budget is low, and buying sources unrelated to the specific query would be wasteful. The gap remains, but affordable, relevant sources are not available.

Sufficiency

Final check — "What does the term "Per-citation payments weighted by contri…": 0% assessed

Sufficiency

Final coverage assessment — The provided sources do not contain any information about "gas fees," "gas consumption," or the term "gas" in the context of blockchain transaction costs. Source S1 discusses a weighted payment model for cited content but makes no mention of gas. Source S2 discusses settlement latency and finality but does not mention gas. The question asks what the specific term reveals about gas, which is entirely absent from the supplied text.
