"""Transactions signed in the browser must validate on the chain. The wallet signs spends client-side, so the signing message is constructed twice: by transaction.py and by static/moonbite-tx.js. The signature covers a canonical JSON serialization, so a single differing byte — a space, a key order, an integer printed differently — produces a signature the network rejects and a user whose coins will not move. These tests run the JavaScript under node and check both halves: that the signing bytes are identical, and that Python's verifier actually accepts the signatures the browser produced.
