📒Blockchain Updates

Our API includes various endpoints that involve on-chain activities and updates, such as ownership verification and smart contract deployment. In order to provide smooth experience and maximum level of security, we employ cryptographic challenges and signatures tailored to each supported blockchain.

Account Creation

To create a new account for the customer and set it up for fund transfers with OffBlocks, we need to deploy a smart-contract account to the respective blockchain. The customer remains the ultimate owner of this account, and to manage funds for off-chain transactions on the user's behalf, we need them to sign a session key issued in the form of a cryptographic challenge. Similar to other endpoints, the challenge returned by the endpoint is a Base64-encoded string.

If, for any reason, the original challenge is lost or cannot be signed immediately, you can fetch it again using a dedicated endpoint. If we encounter an error during signature validation via /sign endpoint, a new challenge will be issued for you to retrieve.
