What is a blockchain certificate and how does it work?

Accepted Answer

A blockchain certificate is a digital proof of your file's existence at a specific time. By registering your document on our platform, you create an immutable record with a unique hash. This certificate serves as a globally accepted, time-stamped proof of your creation, protecting your copyrights for artwork, music, scripts, written words, images, videos, and more.

Question 4

Do blockchain certificates carry legal value?

Accepted Answer

Yes, blockchain-based time-stamping and hashing are accepted throughout leading legislations and organisations such as:

European Union (Regulatory Framework 910/2014/EU)
US (The states of Vermont and Arizona).
China
WIPO (World Intellectual Property Organisation)

Question 5

I uploaded a file for copyright registration, is it secured?

Accepted Answer

Yes, your file data is secured as we do not have access to its content. Your file is encrypted and recorded on the blockchain. We only deal with the hash issued. For further safety and peace of mind, we invite our members to save their work in a password-protected .zip file and then upload this file for copyright registration.

Question 6

How do you check a file timestamp?

Accepted Answer

To verify a timestamp, you need the blockchain certificate and the original file. Compare the certificate details with the file, locate the blockchain address, and check that the hash matches.
