Coreth Atomic Transaction Format

This page is meant to be the single source of truth for how we serialize atomic transactions in Coreth. This document uses the primitive serialization format for packing and secp256k1 for cryptographic user identification.

Codec ID

Some data is prepended with a codec ID (unt16) that denotes how the data should be deserialized. Right now, the only valid codec ID is 0 (0x00 0x00).

Inputs

Inputs to Coreth Atomic Transactions are either an EVMInput from this chain or a TransferableInput (which contains a SECP256K1TransferInput) from another chain. The EVMInput will be used in ExportTx to spend funds from this chain, while the TransferableInput will be used to import atomic UTXOs from another chain.

EVM Input

Input type that specifies an EVM account to deduct the funds from as part of an ExportTx.

What EVM Input Contains

An EVM Input contains an address, amount, assetID, and nonce.

• Address is the EVM address from which to transfer funds.

• Amount is the amount of the asset to be transferred (specified in nAVAX for AVAX and the smallest denomination for all other assets).

• AssetID is the ID of the asset to transfer.

• Nonce is the nonce of the EVM account exporting funds.

SECP256K1 Transfer Input

A secp256k1 transfer input allows for spending an unspent secp256k1 transfer output.

What SECP256K1 Transfer Input Contains

A secp256k1 transfer input contains an Amount and AddressIndices.

• TypeID is the ID for this input type. It is 0x00000005.

• Amount is a long that specifies the quantity that this input should be consuming from the UTXO. Must be positive. Must be equal to the amount specified in the UTXO.

• AddressIndices is a list of unique ints that define the private keys that are being used to spend the UTXO. Each UTXO has an array of addresses that can spend the UTXO. Each int represents the index in this address array that will sign this transaction. The array must be sorted low to high.

Outputs

Outputs to Coreth Atomic Transactions are either an EVMOutput to be added to the balance of an address on this chain or a TransferableOutput (whcih contains a SECP256K1TransferOutput) to be moved to another chain.

The EVM Output will be used in ImportTx to add funds to this chain, while the TransferableOutput will be used to export atomic UTXOs to another chain.

EVM Output

Output type specifying a state change to be applied to an EVM account as part of an ImportTx.

What EVM Output Contains

An EVM Output contains an address, amount, and assetID.

• Address is the EVM address that will receive the funds.

Atomic Transactions

Atomic Transactions are used to move funds between chains. There are two types ImportTx and ExportTx.

ExportTx

ExportTx is a transaction to export funds from Coreth to a different chain.

What ExportTx Contains

An ExportTx contains an typeID, networkID, blockchainID, destinationChain, inputs, and exportedOutputs.

• typeID is an int that the type for an ExportTx. The typeID for an exportTx is 1.

• networkID is an int that defines which Avalanche network this transaction is meant to be issued to. This could refer to mainnet, fuji, etc. and is different than the EVM's network ID.

• blockchainID is a 32-byte array that defines which blockchain this transaction was issued to.

• destinationChain is a 32-byte array that defines which blockchain this transaction exports funds to.

• inputs is an array of EVM Inputs to fund the ExportTx.

• exportedOutputs is an array of TransferableOutputs to be transferred to destinationChain.

ImportTx

ImportTx is a transaction to import funds to Coreth from another chain.

What ImportTx Contains

An ImportTx contains an typeID, networkID, blockchainID, destinationChain, importedInputs, and Outs.

• typeID is an int that the type for an ImportTx. The typeID for an ImportTx is 0.

• networkID is an int that defines which Avalanche network this transaction is meant to be issued to. This could refer to mainnet, fuji, etc. and is different than the EVM's network ID.

• blockchainID is a 32-byte array that defines which blockchain this transaction was issued to.

• sourceChain is a 32-byte array that defines which blockchain from which to import funds.

• importedInputs is an array of TransferableInputs to fund the ImportTx.

• Outs is an array of EVM Outputs to be imported to this chain.

Credentials

Credentials have one possible type: SECP256K1Credential. Each credential is paired with an Input. The order of the credentials match the order of the inputs.

SECP256K1 Credential

A secp256k1 credential contains a list of 65-byte recoverable signatures.

What SECP256K1 Credential Contains

• TypeID is the ID for this type. It is 0x00000009.

• Signatures is an array of 65-byte recoverable signatures. The order of the signatures must match the input's signature indices.

Signed Transaction

A signed transaction contains an unsigned AtomicTx and credentials.

What Signed Transaction Contains

A signed transaction contains a CodecID, AtomicTx, and Credentials.

• CodecID The only current valid codec id is 00 00.

• AtomicTx is an atomic transaction, as described above.

• Credentials is an array of credentials. Each credential corresponds to the input at the same index in the AtomicTx

Let's make a signed transaction that uses the unsigned transaction and credential from the previous examples.

• CodecID: 0

• UnsignedTx: 0x000000000000303991060eabfb5a571720109b5896e5ff00010a1cfe6b103d585e6ebf27b97a1735d891ad56056d9c01f18f43f58b5c784ad07a4a49cf3d1f11623804b5cba2c6bf000000016613a40dcdd8d22ea4aa99a4c84349056317cf550b6685e045e459954f258e5900000001dbcf890f77f49b96857648b72b77f9f82937f28a68704af05da0dc12ba53f2db00000005000000746a5288000000000100000000000000010eb5ccb85c29009b6060decb353a38ea3b52cd20000000746a528800dbcf890f77f49b96857648b72b77f9f82937f28a68704af05da0dc12ba53f2db
