Proof of conviction

Say it like you mean it.

Put your sats where your take is.

Ask anything. Takes are weighed in sats, not accounts. Every take is a bitcoin transaction that burns a little to say something for good. No servers, no take-backs, nothing to trust but the chain.

How it works

#

Pick a topic

Every topic is a Bitcoin address nobody can spend from.
₿

Burn for your take

Send a few sats there with your words attached. They're gone for good. A burn with no take adds weight to the topic, not to any take.

Anyone can count

The ranking is a sum over the blockchain. This page does it in your browser, and so can you.

1

Recompute the address

Name → script → SHA-256 → bech32. Four steps you can do by hand, and a live tool that does them in front of you.
2

Ask your own node

decodescript returns the same address, scantxoutset shows every sat still sitting there, unspendable.
3

Recount the burns

Twenty lines against any explorer, or your node, reproduce every number on this page. No trust in us required.

Passphrase · optional

Encrypts the words in this browser (BIP39) and changes the address: you need it again to restore.

Your batch

Several burns, one transaction: you pay the mining fee once. One burn per topic. How batching works.
