The Chainpoint Community Group has been proposed by Wayne Vaughan:<\/p>\n
The mission of this group is to establish a standard for creating a universally verifiable proof of any data, file, or series of events, by anchoring data to the blockchain and other sources. This allows anyone to prove the data existed at a point in time and has not been modified.<\/p>\n
The group will publish and formalize the Chainpoint specification<\/a> as a stable reference, maintain a test suite, and take feedback and use cases for the future evolution for the specification.<\/p>\n The Chainpoint Community Group will coordinate with the Blockchain Community Group<\/a> for general standardization of blockchain-related technology, and will operate according to the Chainpoint CG charter<\/a>. You can read more about Chainpoint, its history, and goals, on our recent blog post announcing Chainpoint 2.0<\/a>.<\/p>\n This group invites participants who are actively developing and deploying proof-of-existence, timestamping, and data integrity solutions, who are skilled in blockchain technologies, and who can work on use cases for Chainpoint and related technologies.<\/p>\n You are invited to support the creation of this group<\/a>. Once the group has a total of five supporters, it will be launched and people can join to begin work. In order to support the group, you will need a W3C account<\/a>.<\/p>\n Once launched, the group will no longer be listed as “proposed”; it will be in the list of current groups<\/a>.<\/p>\n If you believe that there is an issue with this group that requires the attention of the W3C staff, please send us email on site-comments@w3.org<\/a><\/p>\n Thank you, The Chainpoint Community Group has been proposed by Wayne Vaughan: The mission of this group is to establish a standard for creating a universally verifiable proof of any data, file, or series of events, by anchoring data to the blockchain … Continue reading
