Transaction Format

This file is meant to be the single source of truth for how we serialize transactions in the Avalanche Virtual Machine (AVM). 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).

Transferable Output

Transferable outputs wrap an output with an asset ID.

What Transferable Output Contains

A transferable output contains an AssetID and an Output.

Transferable Input

Transferable inputs describe a specific UTXO with a provided transfer input.

What Transferable Input Contains

A transferable input contains a TxID, UTXOIndex AssetID and an Input.

  • TxID is a 32-byte array that defines which transaction this input is consuming an output from. Transaction IDs are calculated by taking sha256 of the bytes of the signed transaction.
  • UTXOIndex is an int that defines which UTXO this input is consuming in the specified transaction.
  • AssetID is a 32-byte array that defines which asset this input references.
  • Input is an input, as defined below. This can currently only be a SECP256K1 transfer input

NFT Mint Output

An NFT mint output is an NFT that is owned by a collection of addresses.

What NFT Mint Output Contains

An NFT Mint output contains a TypeID, GroupID, Locktime, Threshold, and Addresses.

  • TypeID is the ID for this output type. It is 0x0000000a.
  • GroupID is an int that specifies the group this NFT is issued to.
  • Locktime is a long that contains the Unix timestamp that this output can be spent after. The Unix timestamp is specific to the second.
  • Threshold is an int that names the number of unique signatures required to spend the output. Must be less than or equal to the length of Addresses. If Addresses is empty, must be 0.
  • Addresses is a list of unique addresses that correspond to the private keys that can be used to spend this output. Addresses must be sorted lexicographically.

Operations

Operations have three possible types: SECP256K1MintOperation, NFTMintOp, and NFTTransferOp.

SECP256K1 Mint Operation

A secp256k1 mint operation consumes a SECP256K1 mint output, creates a new mint output and sends a transfer output to a new set of owners.

What SECP256K1 Mint Operation Contains

A secp256k1 Mint operation contains a TypeID, AddressIndices, MintOutput, and TransferOutput.

  • TypeID is the ID for this output type. It is 0x00000008.
  • 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.
  • MintOutput is a SECP256K1 Mint output.
  • TransferOutput is a SECP256K1 Transfer output.

NFT Mint Op

An NFT mint operation consumes an NFT mint output and sends an unspent output to a new set of owners.

What NFT Mint Op Contains

An NFT mint operation contains a TypeID, AddressIndices, GroupID, Payload, and Output of addresses.

  • TypeID is the ID for this operation type. It is 0x0000000c.
  • 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.
  • GroupID is an int that specifies the group this NFT is issued to.
  • Payload is an arbitrary string of bytes no longer than 1024 bytes.
  • Output is not a TransferableOutput, but rather is a lock time, threshold, and an array of unique addresses that correspond to the private keys that can be used to spend this output. Addresses must be sorted lexicographically.

NFT Transfer Op

An NFT transfer operation sends an unspent NFT transfer output to a new set of owners.

What NFT Transfer Op Contains

An NFT transfer operation contains a TypeID, AddressIndices and an untyped NFTTransferOutput.

  • TypeID is the ID for this output type. It is 0x0000000d.
  • 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.
  • NFTTransferOutput is the output of this operation and must be an NFT Transfer Output. This output doesn't have the TypeId, because the type is known by the context of being in this operation.

Initial State

Initial state describes the initial state of an asset when it is created. It contains the ID of the feature extension that the asset uses, and a variable length array of outputs that denote the genesis UTXO set of the asset.

What Initial State Contains

Initial state contains a FxID and an array of Output.

  • FxID is an int that defines which feature extension this state is part of. For SECP256K1 assets, this is 0x00000000. For NFT assets, this is 0x00000001.
  • Outputs is a variable length array of outputs, as defined above.

Credentials

Credentials have two possible types: SECP256K1Credential, and NFTCredential. Each credential is paired with an Input or Operation. The order of the credentials match the order of the inputs or operations.

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.

NFT Credential

An NFT credential is the same as an secp256k1 credential with a different TypeID. The TypeID for an NFT credential is 0x0000000e.

Unsigned Transactions

Unsigned transactions contain the full content of a transaction with only the signatures missing. Unsigned transactions have four possible types: CreateAssetTx, OperationTx, ImportTx, and ExportTx. They all embed BaseTx, which contains common fields and operations.

Unsigned BaseTx

What Base TX Contains

A base TX contains a TypeID, NetworkID, BlockchainID, Outputs, Inputs, and Memo.

  • TypeID is the ID for this type. It is 0x00000000.
  • NetworkID is an int that defines which network this transaction is meant to be issued to. This value is meant to support transaction routing and is not designed for replay attack prevention.
  • BlockchainID is a 32-byte array that defines which blockchain this transaction was issued to. This is used for replay attack prevention for transactions that could potentially be valid across network or blockchain.
  • Outputs is an array of transferable output objects. Outputs must be sorted lexicographically by their serialized representation. The total quantity of the assets created in these outputs must be less than or equal to the total quantity of each asset consumed in the inputs minus the transaction fee.
  • Inputs is an array of transferable input objects. Inputs must be sorted and unique. Inputs are sorted first lexicographically by their TxID and then by the UTXOIndex from low to high. If there are inputs that have the same TxID and UTXOIndex, then the transaction is invalid as this would result in a double spend.
  • Memo Memo field contains arbitrary bytes, up to 256 bytes.

Unsigned CreateAssetTx

What Unsigned Create Asset TX Contains

An unsigned create asset TX contains a BaseTx, Name, Symbol, Denomination, and InitialStates. The TypeID is 0x00000001.

  • BaseTx
  • Name is a human readable string that defines the name of the asset this transaction will create. The name is not guaranteed to be unique. The name must consist of only printable ASCII characters and must be no longer than 128 characters.
  • Symbol is a human readable string that defines the symbol of the asset this transaction will create. The symbol is not guaranteed to be unique. The symbol must consist of only printable ASCII characters and must be no longer than 4 characters.
  • Denomination is a byte that defines the divisibility of the asset this transaction will create. For example, the AVAX token is divisible into billionths. Therefore, the denomination of the AVAX token is 9. The denomination must be no more than 32.
  • InitialStates is a variable length array that defines the feature extensions this asset supports, and the initial state of those feature extensions.

Signed Transaction

A signed transaction is an unsigned transaction with the addition of an array of credentials.

What Signed Transaction Contains

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

  • CodecID The only current valid codec id is 00 00.
  • UnsignedTx is an unsigned transaction, as described above.
  • Credentials is an array of credentials. Each credential will be paired with the input in the same index at this credential.

Gantt Signed Transaction Specification

Proto Signed Transaction Specification

message Tx {
    uint16 codec_id = 1;                 // 2 bytes
    UnsignedTx unsigned_tx = 2;          // size(unsigned_tx)
    repeated Credential credentials = 3; // 4 bytes + size(credentials)
}

Signed Transaction Example

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

UTXO

A UTXO is a standalone representation of a transaction output.

What UTXO Contains

A UTXO contains a CodecID, TxID, UTXOIndex, AssetID, and Output.

  • CodecID The only valid CodecID is 00 00
  • TxID is a 32-byte transaction ID. Transaction IDs are calculated by taking sha256 of the bytes of the signed transaction.
  • UTXOIndex is an int that specifies which output in the transaction specified by TxID that this UTXO was created by.
  • AssetID is a 32-byte array that defines which asset this UTXO references.
  • Output is the output object that created this UTXO. The serialization of Outputs was defined above. Valid output types are SECP Mint Output, SECP Transfer Output, NFT Mint Output, NFT Transfer Output.

GenesisAsset

An asset to be issued in an instance of the AVM's Genesis

What GenesisAsset Contains

An instance of a GenesisAsset contains an Alias, NetworkID, BlockchainID, Outputs, Inputs, Memo, Name, Symbol, Denomination, and InitialStates.

  • Alias is the alias for this asset.
  • NetworkID defines which network this transaction is meant to be issued to. This value is meant to support transaction routing and is not designed for replay attack prevention.
  • BlockchainID is the ID (32-byte array) that defines which blockchain this transaction was issued to. This is used for replay attack prevention for transactions that could potentially be valid across network or blockchain.
  • Outputs is an array of transferable output objects. Outputs must be sorted lexicographically by their serialized representation. The total quantity of the assets created in these outputs must be less than or equal to the total quantity of each asset consumed in the inputs minus the transaction fee.
  • Inputs is an array of transferable input objects. Inputs must be sorted and unique. Inputs are sorted first lexicographically by their TxID and then by the UTXOIndex from low to high. If there are inputs that have the same TxID and UTXOIndex, then the transaction is invalid as this would result in a double spend.
  • Memo is a memo field that contains arbitrary bytes, up to 256 bytes.
  • Name is a human readable string that defines the name of the asset this transaction will create. The name is not guaranteed to be unique. The name must consist of only printable ASCII characters and must be no longer than 128 characters.
  • Symbol is a human readable string that defines the symbol of the asset this transaction will create. The symbol is not guaranteed to be unique. The symbol must consist of only printable ASCII characters and must be no longer than 4 characters.
  • Denomination is a byte that defines the divisibility of the asset this transaction will create. For example, the AVAX token is divisible into billionths. Therefore, the denomination of the AVAX token is 9. The denomination must be no more than 32.
  • InitialStates is a variable length array that defines the feature extensions this asset supports, and the initial state of those feature extensions.
