How to verify this independently of this page: hash the JSON file with SHA-256; the value must match the checksum above. Verify the signature against that checksum with the public key (Ed25519). Check the .ots file together with the JSON file at opentimestamps.org: this proves since when the checksum has been in the Bitcoin blockchain. The proof depends neither on this address nor on the artist, only on certificate, key and blockchain.
