Memory Layer

Tythe’s Memory Layer is the structured trust ledger that transforms authenticated inputs into durable, verifiable histories. While raw inputs initiate the scoring process, it is the memory layer called the Trovebook that binds credibility to time, identity, and behavior. This ledger ensures that trust within the system is not just computed, but preserved, traceable, and cryptographically anchored.

Each TRIS-bound actor (individual, organization, or AI agent) has a dedicated Trovebook that records their trust-relevant activity in a standardized format. These records serve as the foundation for DISC computation, audit systems, and enforcement safeguards. Stored entries are tamper-resistant, zk-hashed, and pseudonymously bound to the actor’s TRIS metadata. They are redundantly anchored to decentralized storage networks such as IPFS and Arweave to ensure permanence and censorship resistance.

Validated entries are immutable. Only pending, self-submitted entries from individuals may be edited before validation. Entries that are revoked, expired, or flagged are moved to a quarantine ledger, where they remain visible for review and possible requalification. All entries regardless of actor type are semantically indexed, time-stamped, and structured for selective disclosure, allowing trust data to be safely surfaced for validators, sponsors, and integrated applications.

The Memory Layer is what separates input from identity, and score from speculation. It converts trust into an infrastructure-grade state, enabling systems to compute and enforce credibility with resilience and integrity.
