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.

Regards
Stefan

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?
