I guess what I’m wondering is…
whether or not any court would uphold a signature from some random service OR does Docusign have some special sauce that makes it legit.
According to AI…
“A DocuSign agreement becomes legally binding through electronic signatures backed by laws like the U.S. E-Sign Act and ESIGN, which treat digital signatures the same as handwritten ones if intent to sign is clear.”
Probably has more to do with your ability to prove that whatever key signed the contract is controlled by the party who claims to have signed the contract.
That’s exactly what I’m thinking. Would be awesome for small agreements amongst Bitcoiners but could it be used for actual legal disputes if parties can’t prove they are the ones who signed.
I'm pretty ignorant here, but I don't think DocuSign is what makes a contract legally binding or not -- at least for myself when I've signed stuff with DocuSIgn, the parties to the contract provide the documents (which express the contract) whether it is signed in person with a notary or via DocuSign or via this p2p platform seems like a question of how the contract was signed -- not whether it was signed, nor what the contract stipulates.
I think that a contract signed by sigit could be just as legally binding as a contract signed via DocuSign. Probably has more to do with your ability to prove that whatever key signed the contract is controlled by the party who claims to have signed the contract.
