Everything you need to know about time stamping on blockchain

Blockchain time-stamping is transforming the certification of digital documents. Explore how this technology can help secure your digital assets, improve regulatory compliance and optimize your business processes.

Blockchain time-stamping is a cryptographic method for establishing proof of the existence and integrity of a digital document at a given point in time.

Blockchain timestamping offers reliable proof of the existence and integrity of your digital documents, strengthening your legal position and protecting your intellectual property.

Blockchain time-stamping is for any organization (innovative company, legal department, etc.) wishing to secure its digital assets and establish indisputable proof of anteriority.

Blockchain time-stamping works by creating a unique digital fingerprint of the document and recording it immutably in a public blockchain, thus guaranteeing its authenticity over time.

We recommend that you time-stamp your documents on public blockchains such as Bitcoin or Ethereum, which are renowned for their security and durability.

Traditional alternatives include filing with a notary or the Soleau envelope, but they don't offer the same operational and financial benefits as blockchain.

What is timestamping in blockchain?

Blockchain time-stamping is a modern method of digital certification that uses distributed ledger technology to create a time stamp of a document.

This technique makes it possible to securely record proof of a file's existence at a given moment, without revealing its content.

By recording a document's unique digital fingerprint (or hash) in a public blockchain, we obtain a hard-to-forge certificate of its existence on a specific date. This method offers a digital alternative to traditional systems such as filing with a notary or sending by registered mail.

Why time-stamp your documents on the blockchain?

Protection of intellectual property

Blockchain time-stamping helps to establish the anteriority of a creation, which can be essential for defending copyright or patents.

Reliable proof of existence

Create solid proof of the existence of your documents at a given point in time, useful in the event of litigation or dispute.

Verification of data integrity

Ensure that your files have not been modified since they were time-stamped, thus reinforcing their probative value.

Large-scale time-stamping

Time-stamping solutions in the blockchain enable much more frequent time-stamping. This has many advantages: reliable versioning, time-stamping of deliverables, traceability of negotiations, etc.

Who can benefit from time stamping on blockchain?

Blockchain time-stamping is a versatile solution that meets the needs of a variety of sectors and professions. Whether you're an innovative company, a legal department, or an independent professional, this technology offers unique advantages for protecting your digital assets and strengthening your legal position.

Find out how different players can take advantage of blockchain timestamping to secure their critical documents and establish indisputable proof of anteriority.

Time-stamping alternatives in blockchain

Although blockchain time-stamping offers unique advantages, there are other methods for establishing the anteriority of your documents. Find out how these alternatives compare to blockchain technology in terms of security, cost and efficiency.

Soleau envelope at INPI

  • Reliable legal proof
  • Affordable cost for a low number of timestamps
  • Complete a request on the INPI platform for each time-stamped file
  • Preservation of proof 5 years, renewable once

Third-party escrow

  • Reliable legal proof
  • Very high cost for a low number of timestamps
  • Deposit the file with a third party for each time stamp
  • Preservation of evidence according to the contract with the third party

Time-stamping Blockchain

  • Reliable legal proof
  • Low cost, regardless of timestamp volume
  • Upload file(s) to a secure cloud
  • Preservation of proof for life

Which blockchain should be used to time-stamp documents?

For a permanent and recognized timestamp, choose recognized public blockchains such as Bitcoin and Ethereum. Their wide adoption and robustness guarantee the durability and reliability of your prior art evidence.

    Frequently asked questions about time stamping on blockchain

    Find out the answers to the most frequently asked questions about blockchain timestamping and how it can be used to secure your digital documents.

    Blockchain time stamping provides solid proof of anteriority, which can be verified by a bailiff.

    A bailiff can verify and attest to the existence and integrity of the time-stamped document in the blockchain on a specific date.

    A bailiff's report can be drawn up at any time, regardless of the date of the time stamp, and reinforces its probative value in court.

    Blockchain timestamp proofs are stored permanently and immutably.

    Once recorded in the Ethereum blockchain, these proofs persist as long as the blockchain itself; unlike traditional methods with limited retention times.

    This ensures that your prior art evidence will remain accessible and verifiable for decades, if not indefinitely, without risk of loss or alteration.

    The Soleau envelope, managed by INPI, has a limited shelf life of 5 years (renewable once), while blockchain time stamping is permanent.

    What's more, blockchain time-stamping is instantaneous and globally accessible, whereas the Soleau envelope requires manual processing and is mainly recognized in France.

    Last but not least, the blockchain time-stamp can be verified at any time online, unlike the Soleau envelope, which requires an administrative procedure to be opened and verified.

    Blockchain time-stamping with MyProof is significantly cheaper than traditional alternatives.

    We offer monthly packages starting at €100/month, with an unlimited number of timestamps.

    The subscription includes secure storage, registration on the Ethereum blockchain and certificate generation.

    Unlike other methods, there are no additional costs for long-term storage or subsequent verification, offering a cost-effective and flexible solution for all your time-stamping needs.

    Documents remain confidential. When time-stamping, only the hash of your document is recorded in the blockchain, never the content itself.

    This fingerprint is a unique code generated from the document, but it is impossible to reconstruct the original document from this code.

    Your files are stored encrypted on our secure servers, accessible only by you.

    You benefit from solid proof of anteriority while preserving the secrecy of your sensitive information.
