Could you build this?

Partial The basic document hashing and signing web interface is straightforward, but establishing an enterprise-grade cryptographic trust registry with verifiable dual-signatures, key revocation, and institutional identity assurance requires deep cryptographic engineering.

What it would actually take: A production version requires an append-only verifiable log (like Trillian or Certificate Transparency), Ed25519 PKI management, strict signature counter-signing pipelines, and institutional key delegation/revocation systems. Building this demands specialized expertise in applied cryptography, security auditing, and distributed trust architecture.
