Identity networks authenticate manuscripts by issuing verifiable credentials (VCs) linked to blockchain-recorded provenance data, including authorship, creation dates, and expert evaluations. Cryptographic signatures from institutions or scholars validate authenticity, while decentralized identifiers (DIDs) ensure tamper-proof tracking. Smart contracts automate verification, enabling libraries, collectors, and researchers to confirm legitimacy without centralized intermediaries.
