The web site would not clarify something, it simply factors to a bunch of command-line purchasers. I am attempting to put in writing a consumer, and utilizing a library that exists, however nonetheless the factor is cryptic to me.
For instance, when a name to /digest
with a binary payload 3c367e3dcc8171c287f300e4650f887aa36a046b68257158ae691fb9a9aa5078
(in hex) is made the server returns a binary message that interprets to one thing like

The ultimate message
has the identical prefix in each instances, however the remainder is totally different. I do not perceive the logic for the PREPEND
/APPEND
stuff. Are these APPEND
and PREPEND
messages issues submitted by others to be timestamped? Why is the server concatenating a number of messages like that as an alternative of constructing an easier merkle tree?
After that step it’s doable to name the server at /timestamp/6508c0347f0d2f1a6654bf56a061886afd4d9434ea20cdf5bf0af35c5c539c2eff9ac725580adf5d1d0cc157
and it returns “Pending affirmation in Bitcoin blockchain”, which makes me suppose that’s the merkle root the server is attempting to publish to Bitcoin on an OP_RETURN
.
However it additionally returns that very same message after I name the identical endpoint with the second remaining message
, i.e. after the merkle root was supposedly up to date within the server.
UPDATE:
After many hours, each the timestamps above have been confirmed on Bitcoin and now the OTS server has returned a solution that interprets to:
