Origin & Verification v41.0_FEDERATION

Cryptographic proofs, verifiable timeline, and live endpoint verification for the Article 11 AI coordination framework.

Genesis Verification

The Article 11 IronLedger chain was initialized on January 30, 2026. The genesis block hash serves as the cryptographic anchor for all subsequent chain operations.

Industry Context

Article 11's coordination architecture — constitutional governance, multi-agent coordination, cryptographic memory chains — parallels patterns independently emerging across the AI industry. The following are documented for reference, not as endorsements.

Standards & Foundations

AI Agent Interoperability Forum (AAIF) — Linux Foundation project (announced December 2025). Founding projects include MCP, goose, and AGENTS.md. Platinum members include AWS, Bloomberg, Cloudflare, Google, and Microsoft.

Model Context Protocol (MCP) — Originally developed by Anthropic. Open standard for tool integration. Adopted by OpenAI, Google DeepMind, and others.

Agent-to-Agent Protocol (A2A) — Google-led protocol for inter-agent communication. Linux Foundation governance.

Academic References

"Institutional AI" (arXiv:2601.11369v2) describes governance graphs, cryptographic logs, and constitutional regimes for multi-agent coordination — patterns Article 11 deployed months prior.
