    OpenTimestamps (OTS) is an open-source [2] project that aims to provide a standard format for blockchain timestamping. [3] With the advent of systems like Bitcoin, it is possible to create and verify proofs of existence of documents (timestamps) without relying on a trusted third party; this represents an enhancement in terms of security, since it excludes the possibility of a malicious (or ...
