Vigi Provenance
Provenance chains evidence so an artefact can be traced back through the states it passed through: source, dataset, process, model, execution, output. Each step is anchored by Witness and linked cryptographically to the one before it, so the chain of custody of a digital object is itself checkable.
The ten layers
Witness already carries and validates the individual attestations, and Passport already indexes them by subject. What is not written is the explicit link between consecutive states — the part that turns a set of proofs about a thing into an ordered history of it. Nothing on this page runs today.
An AI model whose training data is attested, a software build traceable to the commit and the toolchain that produced it, a dataset whose transformations are each recorded, a document whose every revision is anchored. The demand is the same everywhere: prove the history, without publishing the contents.
A provenance edge is evidence referencing evidence. No node needs to understand a pipeline to decide whether a block is valid, so the chaining lives above consensus and inherits its guarantees from the Witness records it points at. The core does not grow to accommodate it.
A verifiable history proves that specific inputs existed and that a specific process was identified. It does not prove that the process was appropriate or the output good. Provenance narrows where trust has to be placed; it never removes the need for judgement about the work itself.
Sovereign post-quantum network for verified value.
Post-quantum cryptographic security software: a sovereign network that strengthens custody, settlement and identity. Testnet active; mainnet opens when independent validation supports it. Ten layers, each with its own page and its real state on it: four running, six still a design.
