Discover how blockchain notarization provides tangible advantages in various professional and personal areas.
Certify the authorship of a document, a letter, or an idea. Ideal for protecting yourself without legal costs or intermediaries.
Protect your creative works (images, audio tracks, NFTs, concept art) by establishing a certain date of creation.
Filing the digital footprint of private agreements, contracts, and minutes: public and immutable proof.
Incontestably prove the authorship and integrity of technical reports, quotes, or documents sent to clients.
If you ever need to contest plagiarism or prove you are the author of a document, the steps are simple and do not require third parties:
The temporal proof is linked to the hash of the file. Keep the original file safely stored on your devices without changing any character or metadata.
The .ots receipt file (downloadable from your panel) contains the cryptographic proof of the hashing path that leads to a confirmed block on the Bitcoin blockchain.
To prove the legal validity of the timestamp, drag the file and its .ots proof into the Verifybit verification page or any public and independent OpenTimestamps validator.
The cryptographic match mathematically proves that the footprint (hash) of your file existed before the indicated Bitcoin block, certifying its existence at that date.
In Italy, the legal validity of technologies based on distributed ledgers (blockchain) is explicitly recognized by D.L. 135/2018 (converted into **Law no. 12/2019**), art. 8-ter.
The law establishes that blockchain timestamping **produces the same legal effects as electronic time validation** governed by the EU eIDAS Regulation (EU Regulation no. 910/2014).
This allows you to present the notarization proof in civil court to legally establish the existence of an original document at a certain date.
