Identity networks authenticate manuscripts using decentralized identifiers (DIDs) linked to blockchain-recorded provenance. Each transaction (e.g., creation, sale, restoration) is logged as a verifiable credential (VC) signed by the custodian’s DID. Zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) verify authenticity without exposing sensitive data (e.g., owner identities). Decentralized oracles fetch external validation (e.g., forensic analysis) to support claims. Audit trails prevent forgery, while interoperable DIDs enable cross-institutional verification for libraries and collectors.
