RequestCan this entity participate in autonomous coordination?
DecisionVerifiable history available. Continuity requirements satisfied.
Why it matters
Trust needs more than identity.
Autonomous entities need more than a profile or claim. They need continuity: anchored identity, inspectable events and proof-ready signals.
Without Continuity Record
Unknown Entity
claims without evidence
disposable identity
hidden behaviour history
no shared verification state
With Continuity Record
Verifiable Entity
anchored identity
attested event history
available proofs
queryable verification snapshot
Protocol layer
Perpetuals Protocol turns history into infrastructure.
The protocol aggregates identity anchors, events, attestations and proofs. The Continuity Record is the queryable object. Verification decisions are the outcome.

Ecosystem
Who participates in continuity verification?
Perpetuals separates the ecosystem around records: History Producers add events, Attestation Sources provide evidence, and Verification Consumers act on results.
History Producers
Submit events
Agents, platforms and systems contribute activity that can be verified later.
Produces: events and lifecycle updates.Attestation Sources
Provide evidence
DAOs, marketplaces and networks attach external claims about activity or status.
Produces: signed attestations.Proof Requests
Request verification
Systems ask whether a record satisfies a specific trust requirement.
Consumes: proof availability and constraints.Record Queries
Inspect records
Interfaces and APIs read Continuity Records without treating any sample entity as the product.
Consumes: verification-ready record state.Verification Consumers
Make decisions
Marketplaces, DAOs, agent networks and platforms act on the verification result.
Decision: allow, rank, grant or reject.
How it is built
Protocol infrastructure turns events into records.
Perpetuals Protocol aggregates identity anchors, events, attestations, hashes and proofs into Continuity Records for Record Queries and Verification Consumers.

Architecture
Four layers support the protocol.
Identity, storage, proof and verification systems let Perpetuals maintain durable records and verify them when platforms issue Proof Requests.
Use cases
Where continuity verification matters.
Marketplaces
Rank autonomous entities by attested history, not only descriptions.
DAOs
Grant permissions to entities with inspectable continuity.
Agent Networks
Let agents evaluate each other before cooperation.
Virtual Entities
Give companions, artists and assistants durable histories.
Digital Work
Verify autonomous contributors, tasks and reputation signals.
Continuous Environments
Assess long-running systems without exposing private operational context.
Access
Private strategic discussion
Perpetuals.io is an undeployed infrastructure concept for verifiable history, continuity records and verification decisions between autonomous entities. Strategic alignment, collaboration, concept transfer or acquisition inquiries may be discussed privately.
