Hancock verifies the authenticity of arbitrary data.

The source author produces testimony - a signed attestation - about the
source.

Verifiers then confirm the authenticity of their copy, using `hancock
verify` to compare the copy to testimony.

Hancock relies on IPFS to distribute testimony. Testimony includes robust
hashes and signatures, to guarantee authenticity while not revealing details
about the original source.



Testimony may be produced by third parties (not exclusively the source
author). Verifiers independently choose which authorities are trusted.

The name "hancock" comes from "John Hancock" - a slang term in the United
States meaning a person's signature.
