Comment on Service lets you "certify" a document using the Bitcoin blockchain

"Your document will not be uploaded. The cryptographic digest is calculated client-side."

That's great, but I have to trust you there. For a document that really matters, I don't think I would.

How about a box that allows me to specify my own SHA256 instead?

There is a developer API that allows you to do this:

That's not the same as making it available for users though, is it?

Maybe calculate the SHA256 on your own box, then upload a document containing only the SHA256?
