Architecture

Production-Grade Blockchain

Real consensus logic — no fake chains, no shortcuts, no central authorities.

Proof of Work

Double SHA-256 identical to Bitcoin. Difficulty retargets every 2,016 blocks with a 4× clamp. Multi-threaded miner with getblocktemplate.

P2P Networking

Full peer-to-peer network with handshake enforcement, peer banning, inventory deduplication, and 8 outbound connections by default.

UTXO Model

Bitcoin-compatible UTXO set with O(1) lookup, double-spend protection, coinbase maturity enforcement, and undo-diff reorg.

BIP-32/39/44 HD Wallets

secp256k1 ECDSA, P2PKH addresses, HD derivation (m/44'/6333'/0'), BIP-39 mnemonic. AES-256-GCM vault encryption.

Merchant Engine

Payment lifecycle with TTL, HD address derivation per request, HMAC-SHA256 webhook signatures with replay protection.

Chain Reorg

Cumulative-work chain selection (not longest). Undo diffs for O(1) rollback. MAX_REORG_DEPTH=100 guards against DoS.

Merkle Trees

Bitcoin-compatible Merkle root in every block header. Any tampered or added transaction invalidates the root immediately.

Persistent Storage

LevelDB with SQLite fallback. Atomic batch writes, UTXO undo diffs, full tx index, and structured key prefixes.

REST API

Full explorer API with sliding-window rate limiting, CORS, SSRF protection, Prometheus metrics, and API key auth.

Protocol

Network Parameters

VitoCoin operates as a sovereign chain with its own genesis block, coin type, and address space.

Security

Hardened at Every Layer

Every component of the stack has dedicated security controls and formal protections.

Double-Spend Prevention

UTXO set enforced at mempool admission and block validation. Spent outputs rejected immediately.

ECDSA Authentication

secp256k1 with low-S normalization (BIP-62). 128-bit equivalent security per input.

Chain Integrity

SHA-256d PoW + Merkle root validation. Every block header commits to all transactions.

Replay Attack Resistance

SIGHASH_ALL binds signatures to the exact transaction. Cannot be replayed in others.

Reorg DoS Guard

MAX_REORG_DEPTH=100. Attack chains deeper than 100 blocks are rejected outright.

SSRF Protection

RFC 1918, loopback, and link-local addresses blocked from all peer connections.

Rate Limiting

Sliding window per IP: 300 reads/min, 5 tx/min, 10 admin/min, 600 global ceiling.

P2P Handshake

Messages before verack are dropped. Ban scoring with 24-hour automatic bans.

HMAC Webhooks

HMAC-SHA256 with 5-minute window and nonce. Webhook secret never in payloads.

Payments

Merchant Engine

Accept VITO payments anywhere — every request gets a dedicated HD-derived address, automatic settlement detection, and signed webhook callbacks.

Per-Order HD Addresses

Each payment request derives a fresh child address via BIP-32 (m/44'/6333'/account'/0/index). No address reuse, no UTXO correlation, no tracking.

TTL-Gated Invoices

Invoices expire automatically — configurable TTL (default 15 min). Expired orders are flagged and archived. No stale payment windows left open.

HMAC-SHA256 Webhooks

Signed callbacks delivered on confirmation. HMAC-SHA256 over the payload with a nonce and 5-minute replay window. Secret never appears in the payload.

Confirmation Lifecycle

Orders transition through pending → detected → confirmed → settled. Configurable confirmation count. Under-payment and over-payment handled gracefully.

Idempotent API

POST /merchant/orders is idempotent on order_id. Safe to retry on network failure. GET /merchant/orders/:id for status polling.

Full Audit Log

Every state change is timestamped and persisted. Export CSV, query by date range or status. Immutable append-only event log per merchant.

Trust

Security & Compliance

Built for production from day one — independent audit coverage, open-source cryptography, and zero custody.

OPEN

Non-Custodial by Design

VitoCoin never holds your keys. All private keys are generated in-browser, encrypted with AES-256-GCM under your password, and stored only on your device. Zero server-side key material.

AUDIT

208 Automated Tests — All Passing

Four independent test suites cover consensus, UTXO integrity, ECDSA signing, mempool admission, fee validation, Merkle roots, and simulated 51% attacks. CI enforced on every commit.

CRYPTO

Industry-Standard Primitives

SHA-256d (Bitcoin-identical), secp256k1 ECDSA with BIP-62 low-S normalization, BIP-32/39/44 HD derivation, AES-256-GCM vault encryption. No proprietary cryptography.

RATE

Sliding-Window Rate Limiting

Per-IP sliding window: 300 reads/min · 5 txs/min · 10 admin ops/min · 600 global ceiling. Exponential backoff enforced client-side; 429 triggers automatic node failover.

NET

4-Node Global Mesh

Frankfurt · New York · Singapore · Tokyo — four independent nodes with automatic health checks, cross-region failover, and BroadcastChannel tab coordination to eliminate redundant calls.

PRIV

Privacy-First Architecture

No analytics, no trackers, no third-party data collection. All blockchain data served from self-hosted nodes. Supabase for authentication only — no financial data leaves your browser.

Quality

208 Tests — All Green

Comprehensive coverage from ECDSA signing to 51% attack simulation across 4 independent test suites.
