Check it yourself — none of this needs this site

  1. Hash the record: sha256sum headline-d0c4eb60a0eb.json prints d0c4eb60a0ebba14ceee51f8e4e98cdefa0b03b2aa722a98dbe97e0feb20d4a2. Its first twelve characters are the end of this record's address.
  2. Drop headline-d0c4eb60a0eb.json and headline-d0c4eb60a0eb.json.ots onto opentimestamps.org, which checks the receipt against the Bitcoin block chain. Or, with the OpenTimestamps client and a Bitcoin node: ots verify headline-d0c4eb60a0eb.json.ots (ots upgrade first while the receipt is pending).
  3. Open the Wayback Machine's captures above: the capture of the record page shows this hash as it stood then, and the capture of the story page shows the newsroom's own page.
  4. If someone shows you this front page as it was, hash it: sha256sum prints 4ad6c8491db2d08390852a8ac3a23d24b4968854a9cdfac25fadf06ff72202f8 for the page this site kept 2026-10-11 00:10 UTC. The hash is a line of manifest #1248, and the manifest's receipt proves the manifest existed by Bitcoin block 970851: with both saved, ots verify manifest-1248.txt.ots.
  5. If someone shows you this site’s picture of that page (the Wayback Machine’s copy of this record page may hold it), hash it: sha256sum prints 5740c33d0bacf27a5b5590b0a518ab022f21362663bc1eea3780c316148677f2. That hash is a line of manifest #1248, beside the hash of the page it pictures, and the manifest’s receipt proves when it existed.
