This article has not changed since Vitahash recorded it on the Base blockchain. Everything below can be checked without taking our word for any of it.
Stamp ID STAMP-2026-1003-BSMNJFAE Content hash f07340156bf0ed531198eab021fef065bc7971da0ef6d5976ff46aa4de93e736 Articles recorded that day 18 Attestation UID 0xf6e9fba3ba6b1c6c69752bbc92919500502fb2928b7ae486ffe947b18c4abd7b View on EAS Transaction 0x22ca88a7c468bd5db1e7c0a5557a5c96ef85c6db922f1c80cc3508747dd1824d View on Basescan Recorded on Base using canonicalization v2 and record format v1.
How this article reaches the blockchain It was combined with the other 17 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 0x9ef4a9490eee0806445cb3a9818c07104140eb31d83b18043e198ccf0f120897 Built from this article's content hash and its stamp ID, as sha256(0x00 || sha256(utf8(stampId)) || contentHash).
Step 1, combined with the value after it 0xc2e7e84bd1f5abcc164824c592508f7b1bbcb898840467fa654589096f9f28d3 0x07f82286ac06c2a2620c16042e74a261c5f99c850bf1384f8ad69e713470dffe Step 2, combined with the value after it 0xda22cd108c55f0d0bea67957d6c92c39fe3919d6e1d2732452c88fdb52246170 0xf7ed38dff2e0b8832c63ffcd8af5e7c62b165861ba079ff29dd735f628be6845 Step 3, combined with the value before it 0x1426adf9cdea7551753aa7000f5a5b1697ae9f9b7b5735753c8e43ffc00383bc 0xf06af4023575444307257bc7eb7d2206954e59673b7705a6aaa0edbad5a1fdef Step 4, combined with the value after it 0x6084880ccb9031ec74fb9ebfcad8c7d373e8fe72a594da8699dcaec3990083df 0x88a50bebd7946b0333cbc87ec0a580bef54324b77b7c68c0b3e83aede9bf5b95 Step 5, combined with the value after it 0x216bda84faad1a65f88feb948ad35688f37f31cccf0507ab5ad4a533c3656efc 0x08e365db5235a29439034a399eb9251c1f4830b35051a287fee77ba91b9fcbe1 This is the value for the whole day.
Value these steps arrive at 0x08e365db5235a29439034a399eb9251c1f4830b35051a287fee77ba91b9fcbe1 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.
Worked out from this article 0x08e365db5235a29439034a399eb9251c1f4830b35051a287fee77ba91b9fcbe1 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":"Drkrittanawong","position":1,"role":"solo","weight":1.0000}],"body":{"content":[{"content":[{"text":"❌ ","type":"text"},{"marks":[{"type":"bold"}],"text":"Myth: ","type":"text"},{"t…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.
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-2026-1003-BSMNJFAE/canonical" | shasum -a 256Should print f07340156bf0ed531198eab021fef065bc7971da0ef6d5976ff46aa4de93e736
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.

8. 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.
