On-Chain Transparency (ByteChain Notary)
The Transparency page (/transparency) is BEXC's public proof layer. Think of it like a notary stamping a sealed envelope: at the end of each period, BEXC calculates a single cryptographic fingerprint — a Merkle root — of a batch of its records, and writes that fingerprint on-chain to BEXC's own blockchain, ByteChain. Anyone can see the seal exists; you personally can prove your own record is inside it without revealing your data to anyone else.
How it works
Each seal ("attestation") covers one category of records over one time period — for example, trading volume, the demo season leaderboard, or the trade ledger. The engine computes a Merkle root over the records in that period and publishes it as a real ByteChain transaction. Every attestation on /transparency shows the category, the time range, the Merkle root, how many records were sealed, and a link to the actual on-chain transaction (viewable on bexcscan.com).
Because only a fingerprint — not raw data — is written on-chain, most seals can be viewed by anyone, while ledger-style seals (like the trade ledger) are owner-only: only you can request a proof that your own row is part of the sealed root, and the proof never reveals anyone else's records.
This is a strictly one-way system: BEXC only ever *writes* to the chain. The engine never reads anything back from ByteChain, so on-chain state can never affect your balance, order matching, or funds — it exists purely as an auditable proof layer.
Steps — verifying your own row
- Log in to your BEXC account.
- Go to
/transparency. - Find the attestation covering the period and category you want to check (e.g. a recent trade-ledger seal).
- Click "View sealed values" to see the public details of that seal (root, tx hash, record count).
- If it's an owner-only category, click "Verify my row". BEXC returns an inclusion proof for your row only.
- Your browser checks that proof against the on-chain Merkle root locally — you'll see a confirmation that your row is sealed on-chain, verified entirely client-side.
Common questions
What is an "attestation"? A cryptographic seal of a batch of BEXC records for one period, published as a real transaction on ByteChain. It proves the records weren't altered after the fact.
Can anyone see my personal data on the transparency page? No. Only a fingerprint (Merkle root) is published on-chain — never raw data. Ledger-type seals are owner-only: you can prove your own row is included, but no one (including BEXC support) can use this page to expose someone else's row.
Is this a real blockchain? Yes. Seals are written to ByteChain and each one has a real transaction hash you can look up on bexcscan.com.
Do I need to trust BEXC's server to verify my row? No — the actual proof check happens in your browser against the on-chain root, so you aren't just taking BEXC's word for it.
Why isn't my latest trade shown yet? Attestations are sealed periodically, not instantly. A very recent action may not appear until the next period's seal is published.
Transparency attestations are a proof/audit layer only — they never influence balances, matching, or fund movement.
