The random salt prevents collisions between otherwise identical messages. The message length is a 64-bit integer representing the length of the message in bytes. (All integers in BSP are big-endian.) The message type is a single byte that is supplied by the client and is not interpreted by BSP.

The random salt prevents collisions between otherwise identical messages. The timestamp is a 64-bit integer representing seconds since the Unix epoch. (All integers in BSP are big-endian.)

Each block has a unique identifier, which is calculated by hashing the message header, a block header and the hash of the block itself. The block header consists of the block number and a list of hashes called the path.
