A transient decentralized anonymous content-addressable messaging service that allows participants to to discover transaction partners and execute protocols with them. Proof of work is used to discourage spam.
(via OP_PUSH_BUFFER, OP_EXEC, and OP_TEMPLATE)
TBD
Relay objects across the network in a manner that discovers and rejects underfee transactions (see relevant doc for details).
Add prevout amount (how many satoshis an input is bringing into a transaction) in the transaction input. If it is the wrong amount, the transaction will not confirm.
This helps entities using transactions (for example who need to fund a tx), it helps prevent accidental fee overpay, and it will help a transition to a hybrid account/utxo model.
SIGHASH_0THRU: signs all outputs from 0 to N (exclusive to SIGHASH_ALL and SINGLE)
SIGHASH_OFFSET: indicates an extra byte to the sighash (preceding it since sighash is at the end). This byte is interpreted as a signed 8-bit integer. To get N add this byte to the input index. (exclusive to SIGHASH_ALL)
New modes:
SIGHASH_SINGLE and SIGHASH_OFFSET: output[input index + N] is signed. Without SIGHASH_OFFSET current behavior is output[input index] is signed.
SIGHASH_0THRU: as described above
SIGHASH_0THRU and SIGHASH_OFFSET: outputs[0…input index + N] are signed. If input index + N < 0 reject.
Note that it may also be possible to implement this functionality with tx introspection and checkdatasig.
TBD
As block height: (POWALG(block) & ~(0xffffffff << 256-4) < difficulty target) && (POWALG(block) >> 256-4) == height)
