What is DocProof and how does it work?

DocProof timestamps a cryptographic hash of your document on blockchain—locally computed, no file upload. Verify by re-hashing and checking the chain.

Does DocProof require crypto knowledge or a wallet?

Nope. It handles everything; no wallet setup, no tokens. Just pick file, prove.

Can I use DocProof for legal evidence?

It's strong proof of existence—courts accept blockchain timestamps increasingly—but pair with traditional notary for ironclad cases.
