Make a promise

Frequently Asked Questions

proof of word™ is a service which lets you certify the trustworthiness of promises by registering them on the blockchain.
Promises are linked to smart contracts and contain a text declaration of the promise (fixed to a formula “I promise that…”) and a relative PDF certificate.
Promises will be listed under your real name and it won’t be possible to delete them after registering, so please think carefully about what you promise!

Blockchain is a system of recording information in a way that makes it difficult or impossible to change, hack, or cheat the system. A blockchain is essentially a digital ledger of transactions that is duplicated and distributed across the entire network of computer systems on the blockchain.
