PaperProof Protocol: The missing artifact layer for Sui, Walrus, and agentic software

Abstract

PaperProof Protocol is a verifiable artifact publishing protocol built on Sui and Walrus. This slide deck introduces the core motivation, architecture, and product positioning of PaperProof. It explains how PaperProof models long-form digital artifacts such as preprints, technical reports, blog posts, datasets, software releases, and related discussion layers as protocol-native, versioned, and verifiable objects. The presentation also outlines PaperProof’s position in the Sui + Walrus stack, its relationship to SDKs and agent-facing skills, and its differences from traditional content platforms and web3 social protocols. The deck is intended for developers, researchers, ecosystem participants, investors, and infrastructure teams who want to understand why artifact versioning, content-addressed storage, and protocol-level verification matter for durable knowledge publishing.
