How this article reaches the blockchain

It was combined with the other 12 articles published that day, one step at a time, until the whole day became a single value. That one value is what Vitahash wrote to the blockchain. Change a single character of this article and the starting value below changes, so none of the steps would land on the recorded one.

Starting value for this article
0x0afbb127a8e817efa3f5acb3f0a27cfdc12f5002f073e656f4a4b8a1fa0d310d

Built from this article's content hash and its stamp ID, as sha256(0x00 || sha256(utf8(stampId)) || contentHash).

  1. Step 1, combined with the value before it

    0x31000bb3cfb7f251ad55feede69affff43f622fc9fb42c0589e9dd15b4607a51

    This is the value for the whole day.

What the blockchain says

Two values, reached two different ways. The one above was worked out from this article. The one below was read back from the record on Base.

Read it yourself on EAS

They are the same value, so this article was published that day with exactly the text above.

Check it yourself

Every number on this page came from Vitahash. Copy the article's exact text below and check it against the hash above, using any SHA-256 tool.

{"abstract":null,"agreement":false,"authors":[{"identity":"PositiveVibez","position":1,"role":"solo","weight":1.0000}],"body":{"content":[{"content":[{"text":"You can’t always control what happens around you, but you can choose how you resp…

Copy this text, paste it into any SHA-256 tool, and compare the result with the hash shown above. If the two match, this is exactly what Vitahash recorded.

For a technical reader: the terminal route

  1. 1. Hash the article yourself

    This downloads the exact text Vitahash hashed, in the exact form it hashed it, and hashes it again on your machine. Nothing Vitahash wrote runs here.

    curl -s "https://api.vitahash.org/api/verify/STAMP-2026-0917-RX6IMCOZ/canonical" | shasum -a 256

    Should print 8a91a3903ffbfdf9aef5aed7448033a46e179e3506fb9abd0e8aed7ea8db0e89

  2. 2. Build this article's starting value

    The stamp ID is folded in with the hash, so one article's record can never stand in for another's.

    STAMP=STAMP-2026-0917-RX6IMCOZ CONTENT=8a91a3903ffbfdf9aef5aed7448033a46e179e3506fb9abd0e8aed7ea8db0e89 DIGEST=$(printf '%s' "$STAMP" | shasum -a 256 | cut -d' ' -f1) printf '00%s%s' "$DIGEST" "$CONTENT" | xxd -r -p | shasum -a 256

    Should print 0afbb127a8e817efa3f5acb3f0a27cfdc12f5002f073e656f4a4b8a1fa0d310d

  3. 3. Combine step 1

    The published value goes first, then the value you have.

    printf '01%s%s' "1f8acc713ee14e26e1f8ea589b3de5a696327979e251ffbcf3abe41e06859278" "0afbb127a8e817efa3f5acb3f0a27cfdc12f5002f073e656f4a4b8a1fa0d310d" | xxd -r -p | shasum -a 256

    Should print 9a5d41fdff2a5ef08c052a047b3b0d00f21b46a1615f63894d73bc8f0132edba

  4. 4. Combine step 2

    The published value goes first, then the value you have.

    printf '01%s%s' "84c25a24cd93950b48eca587b12e1cd1b3aeebcd25eb312ab03170f75800c145" "9a5d41fdff2a5ef08c052a047b3b0d00f21b46a1615f63894d73bc8f0132edba" | xxd -r -p | shasum -a 256

    Should print 0252621b0246461f9699c1e304bdf0b1a0cb448a7f37ea1a550e00a3ca2d5f23

  5. 5. Combine step 3

    The published value goes first, then the value you have.

    printf '01%s%s' "313a6fe993c1def9e9a8f850f3aa4044606c2aa7bd577952abac571c777524a9" "0252621b0246461f9699c1e304bdf0b1a0cb448a7f37ea1a550e00a3ca2d5f23" | xxd -r -p | shasum -a 256

    Should print 2179430ea0588befc303ccd6515f5da08e40ad99c24504fce746072a194ebe90

  6. 6. Combine step 4

    The value you have goes first, then the published value.

    printf '01%s%s' "2179430ea0588befc303ccd6515f5da08e40ad99c24504fce746072a194ebe90" "a66ce1f1da049ece5c77c50b28daa4731b6ca2a516b6ac8e5a1ecc6941ecd1dc" | xxd -r -p | shasum -a 256

    Should print 31000bb3cfb7f251ad55feede69affff43f622fc9fb42c0589e9dd15b4607a51

  7. 7. Compare with the blockchain

    The last value above is what the whole day came to. Read the record on Base and check its merkleRoot field is the same. Vitahash is not involved in this step at all.
