🔥 The Burn Proof
Every ₭ is minted against Bitcoin destroyed forever at an address that belongs to
nobody — and you don't have to trust us. This page recomputes the whole chain in your own
browser, from Bitcoin's generator point upward. Not one number in it was chosen by a human.
What this proves: the burn address is derived — SHA-256 of Bitcoin's own generator (the BIP-341 NUMS
point), tweaked by the network state it seals. Spending from it would require the discrete log of a hash
output, which exists for no one. The sats sent there are destroyed with mathematical certainty, and the same
output engraves the KRAY state onto Bitcoin.
The honest border: on-chain the address looks like an ordinary taproot payment — that is deliberate
(a censor scanning for burns finds nothing). The proof is not in how it looks; it is in this recomputation,
available to everyone, forever.
Trust boundary (read this): this page's JavaScript is served by a KRAYNET node. The math it runs is real
and open (view source), but a doctored node could serve tampered JS. So the truly zero-trust check is
to run the recomputation on your own machine, not this page: node apps/kray-net/burn-verify.mjs <block> <root> [network]
(or read the served /burn-proof.js before trusting it). Machine version of the
same chain: apps/kray-core/src/test/burn-address-proof.test.ts.
