How this article reaches the blockchain

It was combined with the other 15 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
0x8d67daafba6e81d71bacb82b16f3bc0e01f497116de93b546bed7a7254993ddb

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 after it
    0xfc276f741e113b7c896ae81fb4e0da4a1251050a38a4544d8b2bb475ff99ae55

  2. Step 2, combined with the value before it
    0x2c3bcdc269a6af49f9fc91560ea294bee65a7a96cb7d37f45d70a99c80a40ec6

    0x01089cc494102438cf94dcf8e1f212fa7cd9533e8e954ccc633bfbcec4587c94

    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":"poweredbyplants","position":1,"role":"solo","weight":1.0000}],"body":{"content":[{"content":[{"text":"Just Egg frozen vegan egg patties have been my go-to for a quick and easy break…

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-2026-0927-LIMKCMIC/canonical" | shasum -a 256

    Should print 391dcc4e7e5aafd562bc3071f148aab2779e612e878db8d4c0b38758e0e66446

  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-2026-0927-LIMKCMIC CONTENT=391dcc4e7e5aafd562bc3071f148aab2779e612e878db8d4c0b38758e0e66446 DIGEST=$(printf '%s' "$STAMP" | shasum -a 256 | cut -d' ' -f1) printf '00%s%s' "$DIGEST" "$CONTENT" | xxd -r -p | shasum -a 256

    Should print 8d67daafba6e81d71bacb82b16f3bc0e01f497116de93b546bed7a7254993ddb

  3. 3. Combine step 1

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

    printf '01%s%s' "8d67daafba6e81d71bacb82b16f3bc0e01f497116de93b546bed7a7254993ddb" "fc276f741e113b7c896ae81fb4e0da4a1251050a38a4544d8b2bb475ff99ae55" | xxd -r -p | shasum -a 256

    Should print 27b3ca228b1115946ab4f7bed4bfa4015e18afecb6e06c7933b61a52b6d543fb

  4. 4. Combine step 2

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

    printf '01%s%s' "2c3bcdc269a6af49f9fc91560ea294bee65a7a96cb7d37f45d70a99c80a40ec6" "27b3ca228b1115946ab4f7bed4bfa4015e18afecb6e06c7933b61a52b6d543fb" | xxd -r -p | shasum -a 256

    Should print aa578ddfcefd3ad1326c523a92417afa15727ca3825ec5b50289ac1d7e795dc3

  5. 5. Combine step 3

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

    printf '01%s%s' "7fe40eea1bad2bdb93609aa8e573a82f09091eb8006a6e0767682226d1a75fe1" "aa578ddfcefd3ad1326c523a92417afa15727ca3825ec5b50289ac1d7e795dc3" | xxd -r -p | shasum -a 256

    Should print 6eaca6f8fad3941a58480910f7552e56ce37d770b0737e6b02e39bbbe2017c73

  6. 6. Combine step 4

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

    printf '01%s%s' "6eaca6f8fad3941a58480910f7552e56ce37d770b0737e6b02e39bbbe2017c73" "189f16615f033de7dd9a4b992b1aef6470f63541e5680e16fcbbeed9fdc2af1e" | xxd -r -p | shasum -a 256

    Should print 01089cc494102438cf94dcf8e1f212fa7cd9533e8e954ccc633bfbcec4587c94

  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.
