Hash the record: sha256sum headline-b8ca617ca4c2.json prints b8ca617ca4c2925f381786eff51d6b8a4364d31e28b7e4480a8e3bae0ac84bcd. Its first twelve characters are the end of this record's address.
Drop headline-b8ca617ca4c2.json and headline-b8ca617ca4c2.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-b8ca617ca4c2.json.ots (ots upgrade first while the receipt is pending).
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.
If someone shows you this front page as it was, hash it: sha256sum prints e0cd0c3bc5292803bbc76791faa6eba47e2922286e21fc8a216eefbc7bf40220 for the page this site kept 2026-10-11 03:42 UTC. The hash is a line of manifest #1269, and the manifest's receipt will prove when it existed once it is confirmed in Bitcoin (usually a few hours).
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 ad3f19c4b943b5536b3ebd6b20232de967395e7e678df147471fb8a095342f5e. That hash is a line of manifest #1270, beside the hash of the page it pictures, and the manifest’s receipt proves when it existed.
