Trust Lifecycle
Trust is not a label. It is a lifecycle.
Observed
Systems enter the public registry through deterministic observation. This layer records facts only.
Verified
Verification is a point-in-time assessment of eligibility based on submitted evidence. It does not persist automatically.
Monitored
Monitoring maintains verification validity by tracking evidence freshness, interpretation rules, and revocation triggers.
Revoked
Verification may be revoked if published conditions are violated or assumptions no longer hold.
