The SHA-256 digest was recalculated from the downloaded manifest bytes.
The manifest matches the deterministic ContentLedger RFC 8785 serialization profile.
The associated Wayback URL passed the plugin’s HTTP availability check.
Any previous-manifest digest resolves to an earlier sealed record in this ledger.
Legacy records do not receive retroactive content-digest claims.
The JWS signature is cryptographically valid for this manifest digest, and its public key is currently authorized by the site's did:web document.
Verification methoddid:web:fireballnews.com#DjeLUjaodL9oX_rPJwua3boSmmsPTNx_6aEgA19HaPk
A valid signature associates the manifest digest with the displayed site-controlled key. It does not independently establish legal ownership, original authorship, or first publication.

Download the canonical manifest without modifying it and calculate its SHA-256 digest with a local tool. The result must equal the manifest digest printed above.
sha256sum wp-contentledger-0e887548-ad8d-40f8-87dd-386ac7134414.json
After installing the official OpenTimestamps client, independently verify a downloaded proof against the manifest digest:
ots verify -d 0c2a7250c074e2ef7557730439dc0e8c5fe9064ea6b0cab3f2ee2e5bd81b8da8 wp-contentledger-0e887548-ad8d-40f8-87dd-386ac7134414-PROOF-ID.ots
The signature is an RFC 7515 compact JWS using the fully specified RFC 9864 Ed25519 algorithm and an RFC 8037 public JWK. An independent verifier should validate the JWS, confirm its manifestDigest claim equals the SHA-256 above, and resolve the kid against the published did:web document.
