How this article reaches the blockchain

It was combined with the other 14 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
0x91a10b0dfdaf24790268d701231efde7630bdb8ec78b2ed02512a1af8cf55a39

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

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":"Eating vegan on the go is easier than you might think! Here are some common opt…

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-2026-1005-O73JXAGM/canonical" | shasum -a 256

    Should print f7c43d1faad6c7dc211473b9586b6009fe661a2636ca1931491f6d6178d87638

  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-2026-1005-O73JXAGM CONTENT=f7c43d1faad6c7dc211473b9586b6009fe661a2636ca1931491f6d6178d87638 DIGEST=$(printf '%s' "$STAMP" | shasum -a 256 | cut -d' ' -f1) printf '00%s%s' "$DIGEST" "$CONTENT" | xxd -r -p | shasum -a 256

    Should print 91a10b0dfdaf24790268d701231efde7630bdb8ec78b2ed02512a1af8cf55a39

  3. 3. Combine step 1

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

    printf '01%s%s' "91a10b0dfdaf24790268d701231efde7630bdb8ec78b2ed02512a1af8cf55a39" "727d3a8bf481776e005e5008ee133252b124a35ba5d08c4dc06910359830f608" | xxd -r -p | shasum -a 256

    Should print ee7d0ed246e49e45697c929ddcbd1680013bad76b554f85b4848eacd6267cb53

  4. 4. Combine step 2

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

    printf '01%s%s' "ed3cffe46f345fc3920a69d25970b020ab4c14c5e1ba1fdf503263d31e7ef263" "ee7d0ed246e49e45697c929ddcbd1680013bad76b554f85b4848eacd6267cb53" | xxd -r -p | shasum -a 256

    Should print 3f354da99cf8d9595d252baf1e6fe2a10cdff14b7992b02d975ab697294b89ce

  5. 5. Combine step 3

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

    printf '01%s%s' "3f354da99cf8d9595d252baf1e6fe2a10cdff14b7992b02d975ab697294b89ce" "8849d97d1454717a5e8b759c86f355337194a53903bf0f1eff9ae6a6ab7beb53" | xxd -r -p | shasum -a 256

    Should print f6e9bee092ca40c02a96ef8ee26ca39530effb9351665feb3ba92e44033f0037

  6. 6. Combine step 4

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

    printf '01%s%s' "a9f799966a483b5e226937bad04c452defeec34e6edcd62f9a25542551c7c5b8" "f6e9bee092ca40c02a96ef8ee26ca39530effb9351665feb3ba92e44033f0037" | xxd -r -p | shasum -a 256

    Should print 38256faf2512c46a9e2a74487a2b8a28fd1c0c136819a67fdf612f505b6e96b9

  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.
