It-happened.org describes a planned tool for sealing a private account of abuse and later showing that the same words existed by a checkable date.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-19 issue.
For
People seeking a private record of abuse
Worth noticing
The page says a timestamp can establish when words were sealed, but cannot establish their truth or when the described events occurred.

Field notes

The proposed flow keeps the writing and sealing on the user's computer, with an optional locked-record upload and a date linked to a public Bitcoin block. The page says the record would be small—at most about 64 KB—and advises keeping backup copies. It also stresses that a timestamp cannot establish the truth of an account or when the events themselves happened; the project says it is not ready for real records.
