AeonProof Code, a Time Capsule for Source Code
AeonProof registers a signed, timestamped cryptographic proof that a codebase existed, while keeping the source files on the developer's own machine.
Why it surfaced
The workflow hashes files locally, signs a Merkle root with Ed25519, anchors daily batches to Bitcoin, and offers a synthetic-DNA archive as a century-scale backstop. It is unusually specific about both its limits and its intended audience: freelancers, agencies, startups, and anyone likely to argue over who wrote what first.
