Cryptographic business verification in the AI Verified sense means two concrete techniques: (1) hashing identity evidence so a public record has a stable, integrity-oriented identifier, and (2) a website-control check that records Silver. That check does not create Gold. It does not mean a blockchain is required, and it does not replace government registries.
Forensic hashing
A SHA-256 hash identifies a passport path and binds the public address to a specific evidence snapshot model. Details: forensic hash, verification URL.
Domain attestation challenges
DNS TXT or meta tag challenges prove the operator can write to authoritative domain/site surfaces. Domain attestation.
What cryptography does not prove
- That a business is skilled or ethical
- That a government issued the passport
- That generative models will cite the record
Cryptography proves integrity and control properties you designed for — nothing more.
