Transaction Signing

The platform uses a hybrid transaction signing approach optimized for security and user experience.

Overview

XRP Deposits (XRPL Side)

Users sign XRP payment transactions using Xaman wallet to transfer funds to the monitored deposit address. These transactions trigger the automated FAssets bridge.

FXRP Withdrawals (Flare Side)

Withdrawals are executed via ERC-4626 standard contracts using Etherspot smart accounts, enabling gasless transactions with no user signing required.

Deposit Flow

1. User Initiates Deposit

User selects vault and amount in the dashboard.

2. Xaman Payment Request

Backend creates XRPL payment transaction:

{
  TransactionType: "Payment",
  Destination: "r4bydXhaVMFzgDmqDmxkXJBKUgXTCwsWjY",
  Amount: xrpAmount // in drops
}

3. QR Code Display

Modal shows Xaman's official QR code:

• Source: Xaman API (payload.refs.qr_png)

• Scannable: Works with Xaman mobile app

• Deep Link: Alternative for desktop users

4. User Signs Transaction

User scans QR code with Xaman app and approves the payment.

5. Automated Bridge Execution

Once XRPL payment is confirmed:

1. XRPL Listener detects incoming payment

2. FAssets Bridge initiates XRP → FXRP conversion

3. FDC Attestation generates proof of XRPL payment

4. Minting executes on Flare Network

5. Vault Deposit FXRP deposited into ERC-4626 vault

6. shXRP Issued User receives liquid staking tokens

6. Position Created

Backend records position in database with transaction hash.

Withdrawal Flow

1. User Initiates Withdrawal

User selects amount to withdraw from their position.

2. Smart Account Execution

No user signing required! The Etherspot smart account:

1. Calls vault's ERC-4626 redeem() function

2. Burns user's shXRP tokens

3. Returns FXRP to user's Flare wallet

3. Gasless Transaction

• Paymaster Sponsorship: Transaction fees covered by platform

• ERC-4337 Standard: Smart account abstraction

• Instant Execution: No waiting for user approval

4. FXRP Returned

User receives FXRP in their connected Flare wallet immediately.

Transaction Types Comparison

Action	Chain	Signing Method	User Approval	Gas Fees
Deposit	XRPL	Xaman QR Code	Required	Paid by user (~0.00001 XRP)
Withdraw	Flare	Smart Account	Not required	Paid by platform (gasless)

Xaman Integration Details

Payload Creation

For XRP deposits, the backend generates Xaman payloads:

const payload = await xummSdk.payload.create({
  txjson: {
    TransactionType: "Payment",
    Destination: vaultAddress,
    Amount: amountInDrops.toString()
  }
});

Polling Mechanism

Frontend polls for signature confirmation:

// Poll every 2 seconds for up to 5 minutes
const pollInterval = 2000;
const maxAttempts = 150;

const checkStatus = async (uuid: string) => {
  const response = await fetch(`/api/wallet/xaman/status/${uuid}`);
  const data = await response.json();
  
  if (data.signed) {
    return data.txHash; // XRPL transaction hash
  }
  
  return null;
};

Transaction Hash Persistence

Every XRP deposit stores its XRPL transaction hash:

• Verifiable: Hash can be checked on XRPL explorer

• Bridge Tracking: Links to FAssets bridge record

• Audit Trail: Complete deposit history

Smart Account Details

ERC-4337 Implementation

• Provider: Etherspot Prime SDK

• Smart Account: 0x0C2b9f0a5A61173324bC08Fb9C1Ef91a791a4DDd

• Features:

  • Gasless transactions via paymaster

  • Batch operations support

  • Social recovery capabilities

Vault Interaction

Smart account interacts with ERC-4626 vault:

// Withdraw example (simplified)
function withdraw(uint256 shares) external {
  vault.redeem(shares, msg.sender, msg.sender);
  // User receives FXRP, shXRP burned automatically
}

Error Handling

XRP Deposits

• User Rejects: Modal closes, no transaction recorded

• Timeout: After 5 minutes, polling stops

• Network Errors: Graceful fallback with error messages

• Invalid Amount: Xaman validates before signing

FXRP Withdrawals

• Insufficient Balance: Frontend validation prevents submission

• Contract Error: Smart account reverts, user notified

• Network Issues: Retry mechanism with user notification

Demo Mode Behavior

When DEMO_MODE=true:

• Mock QR codes displayed for deposits

• Simulated bridge progression

• Demo transaction hashes generated

• No actual blockchain transactions

Security Features

✅ Xaman Security:

• User approval required for every deposit

• Transaction details shown before signing

• No private key exposure (signing in Xaman app)

• Network validation (mainnet/testnet)

✅ Smart Account Security:

• ERC-4337 standard compliance

• Paymaster whitelisting

• ReentrancyGuard on vault contracts

• Minimum withdrawal limits

✅ Bridge Security:

• FDC attestation proofs verify XRPL payments

• Idempotent operations prevent double-minting

• Automatic reconciliation for stuck bridges

Best Practices

For Users

1. Verify Amounts: Double-check deposit amounts in Xaman before signing

2. Save Transaction Hashes: Keep XRPL transaction hashes for reference

3. Check Balances: Monitor shXRP balance after deposits complete

4. Test Small First: Try small deposits on testnet before large amounts

For Developers

1. Polling Cleanup: Always clear polling intervals on unmount

2. Error Feedback: Provide clear error messages for failed transactions

3. Transaction Tracking: Store all transaction hashes in database

4. Network Switching: Ensure correct XRPL network (mainnet/testnet)
