Check it yourself — none of this needs this site

  1. Hash the record: sha256sum headline-4572fca3e814.json prints 4572fca3e8141d12c1de6fb38ff277a73834506d6f9b7a4cd603ecec303402ea. Its first twelve characters are the end of this record's address.
  2. Drop headline-4572fca3e814.json and headline-4572fca3e814.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-4572fca3e814.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 e99370badb45be81ccdb48e1d7c51aeefbc31aa69a175cbcd236e4f27cab900f for the page this site kept 2026-10-10 19:42 UTC. The hash is a line of manifest #1222, and the manifest's receipt proves the manifest existed by Bitcoin block 970817: with both saved, ots verify manifest-1222.txt.ots.
