A screenshot can be used as evidence of something that happened on the internet. However, the internet is also filled with fake content, including fake screenshots. Some people claim to have seen something on the internet that was never served by any web server.

As the integration of web2 into web3 approaches, QuantumOracle is collapsing the wave functions of all web2 content into a single state captured in decentralized storage. This storage includes a moment in time, retrieval history (such as server DNS, timestamp, and content hash), and more, all combined, verified, and delivered using web3 technologies. This has a lot more proving power than a simple picture, which can be easily manipulated in just minutes.

If a user discovers something newsworthy in their browser, they can use QuantumOracle to prove that it actually happened and protect their rights as the discoverer. By initiating a "screenshot" of the web content, they ensure that it doesn't disappear due to censorship, server failures, or attempts by content authors to erase their internet history. QuantumOracle then verifies that the URL serves the same content that the user claims to have seen, and once the "paperwork" is complete, an NFT is minted and given to the user to show everyone that they witnessed it before it was deleted.

QuantumOracle users can create ENS profiles and subdomains that act like news feeds, containing collections of notarized screenshots. With this feature, users can curate and share their discoveries with the world, building their own personal brand and reputation.
