# 11.5 Machine-to-Machine (M2M) Services

#### Problem

M2M systems rely on:

* Static API keys
* Long-lived secrets

These are copied, leaked, and abused.

#### PTERI Approach

* Each service has a wallet identity
* Requests require signed intent
* Verification is deterministic

Machines become **first-class cryptographic actors**, not privileged scripts.
