1. Compute SHA-256 of OTSCanonicalRecord value → must equal OTSHash 2. Open OTSProofURL → extract Bitcoin block number → must equal OTSBitcoinBlock 3. GET OTSBitcoinBlockVerifyURL → returns the Bitcoin block hash at height OTSBitcoinBlock; GET https://blockstream.info/api/block/{that hash} → its timestamp must match OTSTimestamp 4. Read CopyrightID inside OTSCanonicalRecord → must equal the CopyrightID above 5. GET OTSVerificationAPI → pre-computed 6-check result from server 6. If all match: this entity was registered on CopyrightChains at OTSTimestamp, independently verifiable on Bitcoin Note: an OTS proof may carry multiple Bitcoin attestations; OTSBitcoinBlock is the earliest confirmed one — a later attestation inside the proof corroborates it and is not a mismatch
Dual-chain trust anchor. Chain 1 (CopyrightChains): CopyrightID 0x9130b144890dfcc882db759b2a5610ef9e632354ba71558358b6c867576d1524. Chain 2 (Bitcoin): anchored in block 954010 (2026-06-16T21:41:36Z). Bridge: the canonical record inside this Bitcoin proof contains the same CopyrightID.

Lombardo, Guy: Get Out Those Old Records (1941-1950)
1. Confirm isrcCode identifies the recording in the pre-2022 source corpus and cc-db-prod record 2. GET OTSVerificationAPI → server-side canonical-record, hash, and attestation checks must pass 3. GET OTSBitcoinBlockVerifyURL → returns the Bitcoin block hash at height OTSBitcoinBlock; GET https://blockstream.info/api/block/{that hash} → its timestamp must match OTSTimestamp 4. Confirm CopyrightID is the CopyrightChains transaction hash 5. If all match: the cc-db-prod record is independently anchored on Bitcoin at OTSTimestamp Note: an OTS proof may carry multiple Bitcoin attestations; OTSBitcoinBlock is the earliest confirmed one — a later attestation inside the proof corroborates it and is not a mismatch
Dual-chain trust anchor. Chain 1 (CopyrightChains): CopyrightID 0xcf8bac7ef017a5403cb7a4ad57f0a967f2de696908f36ed8d1fa42a6561d5ba1. Chain 2 (Bitcoin): anchored in block 953520 (2026-06-13T13:32:09Z), registered by our registry partner. The server verifies the private canonical record against OTSHash without exposing internal provider keys. Confirm the public ISRC, CopyrightID, and Bitcoin evidence at https://artists.proofprofile.net/api/v1/bot/ots/verify/track/HKI190216211 — a six-check JSON result.
