On-chain certification refers to the process of recording verifiable proofs or attestations directly onto a blockchain ledger. This method leverages the immutability and transparency of blockchain to provide an unalterable record of credentials, ownership, or data integrity. Once certified on-chain, the information is publicly auditable and resistant to censorship or alteration. It offers a robust and tamper-proof means of verification.
