In the medium run, states will need to replace the signature-checking step with a digital-signature-checking step.In practice, that could be as simple as having Texas state incorporate Google/Apple-style auth, and then require digital actions on deeds to be authenticated via passkeys and/or Yubikeys.This can be generalized. The state becomes a digital platform and any updates to official registries require the equivalent of a passkey to make that update. Existing mechanisms for passport/ID issuance could be ...
