Or, with the OpenTimestamps client and a Bitcoin node: ots verify headline-25e9afc9e789.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.
