DESCRIPTION:Current PID systems\, especially DOI\, still depend on a centra
 l authority that could disappear\, change its policies\, or simply go offl
 ine. We present a non-blockchain-dependent\, truly decentralised Persisten
 t Identifier architecture that eliminates single points of failure without
  the energy costs or governance complexity of distributed ledger systems. 
 It is reached through a DHT-based\, cryptographically verifiable mesh of n
 odes\, realms\, and providers that can mint\, resolve\, and version PIDs a
 cross scientific research\, industrial automation\, and open-data ecosyste
 ms. The architecture supports FAIR principles through persistent\, machine
 -actionable resolution paths\, while data loss resistance is achieved thro
 ugh mandatory replication across providers and a Git-like sectioned hash t
 ree that the integrity. The presentation describes a realm-based multi-loo
 kup mechanism by which the same PID could be resolved from multiple contex
 ts. We kindly invite all the participants to discuss the ideation of the i
 mplementation and the addressed challenges.
