UDS

UDS proves finality. UDS is the sealed Universal Document form. It is intended for a selected final state and carries integrity and signature evidence. A UDS is not ordinarily edited; amendments begin a new UDR.

Current status

Public beta; production signing is not generally enabled

Status is stated as deployed today. It is not a promise of production signing, verified identity, trusted time, or independent-node consensus.

What is UDS?
