How this article reaches the blockchain

It was combined with the other 19 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
0xa19fd2ff9d3845fdb3beffd1ea601bf329b53527d0ad8e5ecac93953f3b63637

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

    This is the value for the whole day.

Value these steps arrive at

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":"harvesthealth","position":1,"role":"solo","weight":1.0000}],"body":{"content":[{"content":[{"text":"Looking for a cozy game for Friday night? 🐦‍⬛✨","type":"text"}],"type":"paragraph…

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-2026-0926-DLSA5WPT/canonical" | shasum -a 256

    Should print 2b11803968ebc5978872e4ce8bf81e109a43d012c0016a287b44e22147555b02

  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-2026-0926-DLSA5WPT CONTENT=2b11803968ebc5978872e4ce8bf81e109a43d012c0016a287b44e22147555b02 DIGEST=$(printf '%s' "$STAMP" | shasum -a 256 | cut -d' ' -f1) printf '00%s%s' "$DIGEST" "$CONTENT" | xxd -r -p | shasum -a 256

    Should print a19fd2ff9d3845fdb3beffd1ea601bf329b53527d0ad8e5ecac93953f3b63637

  3. 3. Combine step 1

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

    printf '01%s%s' "eb55d3aec05c54016d370940764eca0d0477bac746b42cae57a927dc39692f1c" "a19fd2ff9d3845fdb3beffd1ea601bf329b53527d0ad8e5ecac93953f3b63637" | xxd -r -p | shasum -a 256

    Should print 575aa995fa93b290cd04afd25a3ff70f5034e864bc7b21aa79c1f042031b5fef

  4. 4. Combine step 2

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

    printf '01%s%s' "de5d72e6facc516b521a9dcc7f7d35c21eac5292319837957ba97c08d6e19a17" "575aa995fa93b290cd04afd25a3ff70f5034e864bc7b21aa79c1f042031b5fef" | xxd -r -p | shasum -a 256

    Should print 338087d57076385362f8b946b1aeb173dce23ad0a0d0e2a793f84da82df6b81f

  5. 5. Combine step 3

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

    printf '01%s%s' "c1d5d231b268f46906a4da83c556378223bf6096ded3827d3cd87ed49e6fd45c" "338087d57076385362f8b946b1aeb173dce23ad0a0d0e2a793f84da82df6b81f" | xxd -r -p | shasum -a 256

    Should print 8b2476a9102c6f8fddeaea8b440d390005d5d4f4ebd31a5e0f185dd330f209ab

  6. 6. 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.
