Or, with the OpenTimestamps client and a Bitcoin node: ots verify headline-16ab389d1531.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 7b88c50dc080553eeba6a5461b14d72c3474c66e5e5565fe209c1bbe76734c65 for the page this site kept 2026-10-10 16:42 UTC.
