Building a Trusted Web with blockchain Timestamps

The internet is broken. We are slowly loosing trust in what we see and read on the internet. How can we bring back accountability and transparency on the net. Trust must become part of the internet's DNA.

The solution is timestamping content on blockchain technology. From news outlets, to legal documents, ecommerce and social media. Timestamping is an open source solution to restore trust in the internet.

Each piece of content has an unique fingerprint, the hash. This hash is unique to that state of the content. Change any detail in the content and the hash will change. By storing the hash on a blockchain transaction you can forever prove that state of the content at a certain time.

We'll cover:
- Building the trusted web, why transparency and accountability is important.
- How does timestamping content on the blockchain works.
- The future of SEO; an example how timestamps help search engines find relevant content.
- Other use-cases; Copyright protection, commerce.
- How you can now join the fight for the trusted web using wordproof.
