From this new version onwards, in addition time-stamping the _git tag_ with [OpenTimestamps](https://opentimestamps.org/), we'll also now timestamp the manifest file along with its signature. Two new files are now included along with the rest of our release artifacts: ` manifest-roasbeef-${{ env.RELEASE_VERSION }}.txt.asc.ots`.

Assuming you have the opentimestamps client installed locally, the timestamps can be verified with the following commands:
9393
```
9494
ots verify manifest-roasbeef-${{ env.RELEASE_VERSION }}.sig.ots -f manifest-roasbeef-${{ env.RELEASE_VERSION }}.sig

ots verify manifest-${{ env.RELEASE_VERSION }}.txt.ots -f manifest-${{ env.RELEASE_VERSION }}.txt

Alternatively, [the OpenTimestamps website](https://opentimestamps.org/) can be used to verify timestamps if one doesn't have a `bitcoind` instance accessible locally.

Assuming you are using the [OpenTimestamps `ots-git-gpg-wrapper`](https://github.com/opentimestamps/opentimestamps-client/blob/master/doc/git-integration.md#usage) you can verify the timestamp of the _git tag_ by verifying the tag as explained in _Verifying the Release Binaries_.

These timestamps should give users confidence in the integrity of this release even after the key that signed the release expires.
