Check it yourself — none of this needs this site

  1. Hash the record: sha256sum headline-77772299bce3.json prints 77772299bce3c774283d53130779cbb5b9bdd26b4b491a025aead525ee07cbf6. Its first twelve characters are the end of this record's address.
  2. Drop headline-77772299bce3.json and headline-77772299bce3.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-77772299bce3.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 83f99548296379f1d8f493dee02d7621c3e72bbeea62c03a3fabef8954be4b9e for the page this site kept 2026-10-10 01:11 UTC. The hash is a line of manifest #1116, and the manifest's receipt proves the manifest existed by Bitcoin block 970704: with both saved, ots verify manifest-1116.txt.ots.
