### New Project: Steem-Verifier

#### **What is the project about**?

**Steem-Verifier** is a command line tool, which helps Steem users to audit a given transaction for the public keys which signed the transaction, and to link such discovered public keys with the owning accounts.

#### Use cases
The tool is useful for accounts which multiple authority key and / or authority applications, allowing the discover of which one of the authorities was responsible for signing the transaction.

Also, when recursive authorization happens (account A authorizes account B, which authorized account C, which authorizes account D). Allowing to pin point which of the recursive authorities was the one actually signing the transaction.

```
pip install steem-verifier
```

The usage, is simple:

```

```

```
transaction  The transaction ID (hex) to verify the signatures.
-h, --help   show this help message and exit
--node NODE  HTTPS RPC node to connect, defaults to https://steemd.privex.io

#### P.S.
Since Utopian frontend is currently unavailable and it will be way harder to set as beneficiary manually, I'll transfer `utopian.pay` 15% of the payout, upon release.
