1. Compute SHA-256 of OTSCanonicalRecord value → must equal OTSHash 2. Open OTSProofURL → extract Bitcoin block number → must equal OTSBitcoinBlock 3. GET OTSBitcoinBlockVerifyURL → block must exist at that height 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
Dual-chain trust anchor. Chain 1 (CopyrightChains): CopyrightID 0x2b3dd1601eb2569c3915215a9223e143a0ae267fde656a3e98991f6ae726907f. Chain 2 (Bitcoin): anchored in block 953842 (2026-06-15T22:22:30Z). Bridge: the canonical record inside this Bitcoin proof contains the same CopyrightID.
