Timestamp an idea without revealing it. We store a cryptographic fingerprint of your text — not the text itself — in a public, append-only chain. Later you can prove you wrote it, and when, by revealing the original. Nobody can read your idea in the meantime, and nobody (not even us) can quietly change its place in the order.
What this proves, honestly: the chain proves the order of commitments and that no entry was altered or reordered after the fact. On its own it doesn't prove absolute time to an outside skeptic, since the operator holds the database. Periodically we can publish the latest chain hash somewhere unchangeable (a public post, a git commit, a blockchain) to anchor everything before it in real-world time — see the chain and any anchors.
