Sažetak
The records created today are created in the digital form. Their trustworthiness, i.e. authenticity, accuracy and reliability are important in the context of long-term digital preservation. In the digital form, the concept of original has changed significantly. Paper contracts between two parties, for example, were usually made in at least two copies, each of them considered original and kept by the contracting parties. Their copies were clearly distinguished from the originals. On the other hand, one digital version of a contract can be digitally signed by two parties and copied in, theoretically, infinite number of – originals. In specific cases, like in the case of dealing with promissory notes (a type of bearer instrument) where the person holding the original has certain rights and the rights can be exchanged by the exchange of the physical original, creation of a digital original is not practical since it may be duplicated many times without the possibility to distinguish between the original carrying rights and originals that do not. To cope with this challenge, and to be able to use digital originals just as their paper counterparts, a blockchain-based solution to manage and trace digital originals will be presented and analyzed. The idea behind it is to create an environment which can manage digital originals as irrefutable evidences.
