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
Dual-chain trust anchor. Chain 1 (CopyrightChains): CopyrightID 0xafec4b4b8f14345823115e50c6ec117c353671a2bc4b6c15d4c505c3ec23904d. Chain 2 (Bitcoin): anchored in block 953871 (2026-06-16T01:46:03Z). Bridge: the canonical record inside this Bitcoin proof contains the same CopyrightID.

From Far Enough Away Everything Sounds Like The Ocean
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
Dual-chain trust anchor. Chain 1 (CopyrightChains): CopyrightID 0xcd72caedba07c9b2c206bf9b34566fe5eb0e5593a5d0f638ce0d9f27b25111eb. Chain 2 (Bitcoin): anchored in block 958212 (2026-07-15T23:25:50Z), registered by our registry partner. The server verifies the private canonical record against OTSHash without exposing internal provider keys.
