Check it yourself — none of this needs this site

  1. Hash the record: sha256sum headline-ae909bb7ecdc.json prints ae909bb7ecdcda8c05e4b50f06e7d1ccf9fce204662a4b57d800b457b07e34db. Its first twelve characters are the end of this record's address.
  2. Drop headline-ae909bb7ecdc.json and headline-ae909bb7ecdc.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-ae909bb7ecdc.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 dd4ca6d06b14e729a33cabc6968c82b77c132ce745b7096013dfcb9c4d9d3da1 for the page this site kept 2026-10-11 02:02 UTC. The hash is a line of manifest #1259, and the manifest's receipt proves the manifest existed by Bitcoin block 970861: with both saved, ots verify manifest-1259.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 7be21186689ab63e429e936455f853e293686c33b128b3c900d552e5ae52f8d4. That hash is a line of manifest #1260, beside the hash of the page it pictures, and the manifest’s receipt proves when it existed.
