Episode Details

Bryan Jacoutot, commercial litigator at Clark Hill, joins Marty Bent to explain how Bitcoin timestamping through OpenTimestamps and SimpleProof can authenticate digital evidence in the age of generative AI deepfakes. They cover his proposed federal rules of evidence change, a rebuttable presumption of authenticity for hashed files, and how Screven County, Georgia hashes election results and drop box surveillance video into the Bitcoin blockchain. They also discuss FinCEN's retracted rule, the Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act, the Bank Secrecy Act, and truth decay.
