ValidAny previous-manifest digest resolves to an earlier sealed record in this ledger.
Current content
Not availableLegacy records do not receive retroactive content-digest claims.
Site digital signature
Ed25519 compact JWS
Valid and currently authorizedThe 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.

Independent digest check
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.
