Proofs Overview

Our proofs overview allows you to easily navigate through all the self-hosted address ownership proofs.

The table consists of the following fields:

Wallet Address / ID
Status / Risk Score
Virtual Asset
Proof Type
Proof
Date Created
Actions

Wallet Address / ID

The wallet address that is being checked for proof of ownership. These refer to an external self-hosted address of one of the customers of your VASP. Clicking on it will open a new tab showing the Blockbook Block Explorer where you will be able to see the details of this particular address.

Each proof has a unique ID which can be found under the wallet address.

Status / Risk Score

Can be either Verified, Pending or Failed.

Proofs that were successfully confirmed will go into a Verified status.

Pending and Failed are specific to the Satoshi Test proof type.

If it’s Pending, it means the blockchain transaction has not yet been transferred; this means the wallet ownership is not yet confirmed.

If the specified amount was not sent within the 48 hour time frame from the Date Created, the transaction will fail, and there will be no proof of ownership for this particular address.

For the risk score, a blockchain analytics tool needs to be set up and you will see a score of either Severe, High, Medium or Low.

Virtual Asset

The Virtual Asset that the external self-hosted wallet holds.

Proof

The method type used to show proof of ownership of the customer's self-hosted wallet. We currently have three options:

• Signature Proof
• Satoshi Test
• Visual Proof

The method type selected will be displayed above the proof data on each row.

Signature Proof

If you used the signature proof method, this field would show the message used to create the digital signature.

Satoshi Test

If successfully verified, this will show a message like the following:

Received 0.00005175 BTC in 232025407cae6b158c67af3d4c590012f...

if pending, it will show the following message:

14UAZPRVtNb5T5nbRLoGJmj5U6n9CmeY2Q must be verified within {HOURS_SET_ON_CONFIG}h

If you hover over this, a tooltip will display the full message with a copy button for the whole message.

In the case the transaction fails, the field will show something like this:

Expired without proof on 21/02/2023, 13:46:18

Visual Proof

For Visual Proof, this field will show a button to view the proof. This should open a new tab with the file.

Date Created

The time and date the proof method was created. The format shown is day/month/year and hour/minutes/seconds. The time will be shown in the time zone configured in your browser and can be seen by hovering over the transaction date. This will reveal a tooltip with the timezone: continent/city format.

Actions

There are two actions available on the actions field; the Save As File and the Verify buttons.

Save As File

This allows you to download an .xlsx (Excel) with the data about this proof.

Verify

This action is specific to the Satoshi Test. Once the transaction has been checked on either a VASP wallet address or a blockchain explorer, you can click this button to verify the transaction.
