# createMerkleRoot
Calculates the Merkle root hash for transactions of block on the basis of the transaction hash and the sibling hashes of the Merkle tree. BLAKE2b-256 (opens new window) algorithm is used for hashing. To check for the transaction in the block, you need to compare the calculated hash with the transactionsRoot field in the block header. For more informtion see the Transactions Root Hash.
createMerkleRoot(merkleProofs: List[ByteVector], valueBytes: ByteVector, index: Int): ByteVector
# Parameters
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
merkleProofs: List[ByteVector] | Array of sibling hashes of the Merkle tree. Up to 16 items, 32 bytes each |
valueBytes: ByteVector | Hash of transaction. Fixed size: 32 bytes. You can use blake2b256 function. The transaction must be hashed together with the signature |
index: Int | Index of the transaction in the block |
# ecrecover
Recovers public key from the message hash and the ECDSA (opens new window) digital signature based on the secp256k1 elliptic curve. Fails if the recovery failed.
The public key is returned in uncompressed format (64 bytes).
The function can be used to verify the digital signature of a message by comparing the recovered public key with the sender’s key.
ecrecover(messageHash: ByteVector, signature: ByteVector): ByteVector
# Parameters
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
messageHash: ByteVector | Keccak-256 hash of the message. Fixed size: 32 bytes |
signature: ByteVector | ECDSA digital signature. Fixed size: 65 bytes |
# Example
Verify the transaction of the Ethereum blockchain using the following data:
- the transaction;
- the signature that is generated by the ecsign (opens new window) functions (
r,s, andvbytes concatenation); - sender public key.
func check(t: ByteVector, signature: ByteVector, publicKey: ByteVector) = {
ecrecover(keccak256(t), signature) == publicKey
}

Data can be hashed before signing using one of the following algorithms:
- MD5
- SHA-1
- SHA-224
- SHA-256
- SHA-384
- SHA-512
- SHA3-224
- SHA3-256
