Whitepaper and technical research

Proof should be inspectable.

PoCI is a framework for AI lineage, timestamp integrity, and compute provenance. The research is published so the architecture, boundaries, and implementation direction can be examined directly—not reduced to a marketing claim.

Primary paper

Proof of Compute Integrity

Version 0.159 pages12GaugeKenshinNovember 13, 2025

The paper describes signed compute events, off-chain event storage, compact on-chain commitments, Kaspa blockDAG anchoring, and later verification or lineage reconstruction.

PoCISys emblem

Core architecture

Four connected loops

01

Event creation

An AI or compute action is represented as a structured event with lineage and execution metadata.

02

Proof generation

The event is hashed and signed, creating a compact commitment without publishing the full private payload.

03

Kaspa anchoring

Selected hashes, signatures, and lineage commitments can be anchored to Kaspa's blockDAG.

04

Verification

Later observers can reconstruct lineage and verify that presented records match the original commitments.

What PoCI provides

Integrity evidence

  • Tamper-evident event commitments
  • Signed lineage between compute events
  • Independent timestamp and anchoring paths
  • Verification without exposing full event data

What PoCI does not claim

Important boundaries

  • It does not prove an output is correct
  • It does not prove a dataset is accurate or ethical
  • It does not reveal private model reasoning
  • It complements—not replaces—ZKML, hardware attestation, and formal verification
PoCI is being developed in public. Terminology, implementation details, and interfaces may evolve as the research is tested and the application matures.
