Reilly Government Integrity Protocol (RGIP): Multi-Layer, Quantum-Resilient Framework for Permanent and Tamper-Evident Public Records
The Reilly Government Integrity Protocol (RGIP) defines a
standards-aligned method for producing permanent, independently
verifiable public records by combining multi-algorithm content
hashing, public blockchain anchoring via OpenTimestamps, DOI-based
archival, decentralized storage, and web archiving into a single
automated pipeline. This revision (01) expands the protocol to
incorporate a Triple-Hash Chain architecture running SHA-256
[RFC6234], SHA3-512 [FIPS202], and BLAKE3 [BLAKE3] in parallel,
bound together by a cryptographic Cross-Chain Hash at every block.
RGIP introduces the REMID (Reilly EternaMark Identifier), a self-
sovereign persistent identifier derived directly from artifact
content, replacing reliance on externally assigned identifiers as
the sole chain anchor. The protocol specifies the Evidence Receipt
(ER), an expanded canonicalized metadata object binding the
artifact's triple-hash fingerprint, a REMID, a DOI, an
OpenTimestamps Bitcoin proof, an IPFS CID, and an Internet Archive
URI. Processing steps, chain integrity procedures, autonomous
verification, and post-quantum resilience properties are defined.
