How this article reaches the blockchain

It was combined with the other 11 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
0x72e5810c4f841edd11a8555cc6932433162d4b62f19d891358f7d86e25e11ffc

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.

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":"simple_recipes_daily","position":1,"role":"solo","weight":1.0000}],"body":{"content":[{"content":[{"text":"Looking for a quick and flavorful lunch? These grilled buffalo chicken wra…

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-2026-1105-Z7XV7DQW/canonical" | shasum -a 256

    Should print 5cc0c9053f2547cc8c63e8532f68759c04a78dece0d5cf00d3253923e70dda5f

  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-2026-1105-Z7XV7DQW CONTENT=5cc0c9053f2547cc8c63e8532f68759c04a78dece0d5cf00d3253923e70dda5f DIGEST=$(printf '%s' "$STAMP" | shasum -a 256 | cut -d' ' -f1) printf '00%s%s' "$DIGEST" "$CONTENT" | xxd -r -p | shasum -a 256

    Should print 72e5810c4f841edd11a8555cc6932433162d4b62f19d891358f7d86e25e11ffc

  3. 3. Combine step 1

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

    printf '01%s%s' "3b831f6a572e4a93329437e89931b7cb5f532378011ee07e3ab65ab3af107cc5" "72e5810c4f841edd11a8555cc6932433162d4b62f19d891358f7d86e25e11ffc" | xxd -r -p | shasum -a 256

    Should print fa40a17d996ec80098cbea6f5d53483fb84051aa3462bf260fdeb73e57520d64

  4. 4. Combine step 2

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

    printf '01%s%s' "2c98ee4937e52b8b45c1839288b4b4f678bf322a824a86b983393cf2cbd226ab" "fa40a17d996ec80098cbea6f5d53483fb84051aa3462bf260fdeb73e57520d64" | xxd -r -p | shasum -a 256

    Should print f119904624d5c3eec5a49f2357ad6ebe30995fe5bb8735024047c82ce6f4b376

  5. 5. Combine step 3

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

    printf '01%s%s' "44df682a6023b81e87ff829ccca3e146cb12d98ec2a65d04100ea772c6deb9ef" "f119904624d5c3eec5a49f2357ad6ebe30995fe5bb8735024047c82ce6f4b376" | xxd -r -p | shasum -a 256

    Should print efb0a2841ae86a42f2cad5934d41fc3fe4e5eb0afa96bca6b150b3ea749097db

  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.
