Depends, if you use JWT you can cryptographically verify that the token and the token claims are valid. Right now, Hydra does not issue JWTs but it would be easy as pie to add that functionality.

Writing an integration guide for this is a very good idea. Hydra's APIs are validating all requests using that technique, but it's not documented.

Auth0.com is pretty cool, they have done some cool projects that help OAuth developers. However, they are overpriced imho. Hosting hydra is definitely something I will consider. Thanks! :)
