Thanks, I wanted to present a way for people within the EU to have an option to phase out the old and non reliable and non trustworthy WoT, which can't, as you know, not been used for businesses, contracts etc. The blockchain stuff I did only mostly for Americans, because they like NFTs and stuff like that. Please feel free to forge the certificate or blockchain proofs so that we can brainstorm about better ways to secure certain things digitally.

The reason why I did it this way with a certificate:
To have a *proof* of ownership and option that it is me who did that and the blockchain helps to undermine that, because at the timestamping service I am registered and log in there via Gmail.
My pub key in the certified document is stored on a YubiKey for additional security and can be uses with rage, the Rust version of age, because age currently does not have this option.
Two other things about my certificate.
The identicon graphic represents a visual representation of my public key ASCII string and the QR-Code contains a Hashcash token, created from my pub key and De-Mail adress.

It is so wonderful you did these things. But what is the point of the putting timestamps on the blockchain in a way that can be forged on-chain manually?
