How this article reaches the blockchain

It was combined with the other 10 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
0x353c71e1528f558176343dcb7fcb7191254904520ca58ded8087e6472a1ac947

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":"simple_recipes_daily","position":1,"role":"solo","weight":1.0000}],"body":{"content":[{"content":[{"text":"Want a sweet, flaky dessert with a delicious honey-nut filling? Homemade b…

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-2026-1107-DAMRLDFP/canonical" | shasum -a 256

    Should print a63beefc6156dc10b211b97b4f9f984967da5dd86a97447ffd746c4758675a0b

  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-2026-1107-DAMRLDFP CONTENT=a63beefc6156dc10b211b97b4f9f984967da5dd86a97447ffd746c4758675a0b DIGEST=$(printf '%s' "$STAMP" | shasum -a 256 | cut -d' ' -f1) printf '00%s%s' "$DIGEST" "$CONTENT" | xxd -r -p | shasum -a 256

    Should print 353c71e1528f558176343dcb7fcb7191254904520ca58ded8087e6472a1ac947

  3. 3. Combine step 1

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

    printf '01%s%s' "353c71e1528f558176343dcb7fcb7191254904520ca58ded8087e6472a1ac947" "35ca6081741352c1af5dd26f7599c3de57659ba4085421eb317501eaf2f5bea9" | xxd -r -p | shasum -a 256

    Should print 10893e670c27396be3fbb2582292fe1006ff756cd0038654c954cc8c418326b2

  4. 4. Combine step 2

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

    printf '01%s%s' "a9cb2db567c19e76312c143e799b551a04484e0d088f616a589f1c2c66ec490a" "10893e670c27396be3fbb2582292fe1006ff756cd0038654c954cc8c418326b2" | xxd -r -p | shasum -a 256

    Should print cd1e605fd4fb27f444aa2135e9596d79e406658a66cbe5e9b1130cef0892a698

  5. 5. Combine step 3

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

    printf '01%s%s' "cd1e605fd4fb27f444aa2135e9596d79e406658a66cbe5e9b1130cef0892a698" "619d9b6cf7be91f954e51ce369f4d1172e3325b1e3a685a625e767aff583084a" | xxd -r -p | shasum -a 256

    Should print b464e8637cc8300217b504ca5620866817225bf01732ab7519efe2b4379d4f87

  6. 6. Combine step 4

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

    printf '01%s%s' "b464e8637cc8300217b504ca5620866817225bf01732ab7519efe2b4379d4f87" "652543937c6ec0cb1cac2019fc1342400b419b4ce6f9e0b696ae93a40e23eea2" | xxd -r -p | shasum -a 256

    Should print 47889d0360d083dccec3fdfa62ad94f2586617a1ef045810e72f0ddba18dac41

  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.
