⚠️ NOTICE: Deployment Testing in Progress We have recently deployed a major platform update and are currently performing post-deployment testing and validation. Please do not use this website or submit any transactions until testing is complete. Some features may be unavailable or behave unexpectedly. Thank you for your patience as we work to ensure everything is functioning correctly.

Wallets, privacy and your proofs

Revoking a proof

Taking a proof's certificate down: who can, what stops working, what stays on the blockchain, and reporting someone else's.

What revoking does

Revoking takes a proof down for everyone. Once it is revoked:

its certificate shows as not found;
its badge, QR code and downloads stop working;
it is no longer listed on the public page for its signing address, and Verify no longer finds it;
it can no longer be published, signed or stamped.

It stays in your own list, marked revoked.

Revoking cannot be undone

There is no way to bring a revoked proof back. To prove the same content again, create a new proof.

Who can revoke

Only the proof’s owner, the account that created it, can revoke it, while signed in with Digi-ID.

What stays on the blockchain

Revoking takes down the certificate. It cannot touch the blockchain:

Already sent in a batch, or confirmed: the transaction stays on the DigiByte blockchain for good. It holds only the batch’s Merkle root, never your text or file. Anyone who has the fingerprint, the Merkle proof and the transaction ID can still check it.
Queued for the next batch: revoking also takes it out of the queue, so its fingerprint is not written to the blockchain.

A stamp fee already paid is not refunded automatically when a proof is revoked.

How to revoke

Sign in with Digi-ID.
Open the proof from My proofs.
Under Withdraw, choose Revoke proof.
Read the warning and confirm. The page shows the proof as withdrawn.

Reporting someone else's proof

If a proof that isn’t yours shows something unlawful, someone’s private details, or work that isn’t the signer’s, choose Report this proof at the foot of its certificate. You don’t need to sign in.

The DigiStamp team reviews every report by hand. If a proof breaks the terms, it is removed: its certificate, badge, QR code and downloads stop working, as if it were revoked. A Merkle root already saved to the blockchain stays there, but that is only a hash, never the text.

We keep your report and, if you were signed in, your account. We don’t keep your IP address.
