Do you mean BIP141? Your example is an error by BIP141: 1*4 + 79999*1 = 80003 > 80000 From: bitcoin-dev-bounces@lists.linuxfoundation.org [mailto:bitcoin-dev-bounces@lists.linuxfoundation.org] On Behalf Of Sergio Demian Lerner via bitcoin-dev Sent: Monday, 21 March, 2016 10:51 To: bitcoin-dev Subject: [bitcoin-dev] BIP147 minor error The BIP147 reads: Sigop cost is defined. The cost of a sigop in traditional script is 4, while the cost of a sigop in witness program is 1. The new rule is total sigop cost ≤ 80,000. But the code implements: if (nSigOps + (nWitSigOps + 3) / 4 > MAX_BLOCK_SIGOPS) ... error.... Which is not the same. For example: nSigOps = 1 nWitSigOps =79999 Is not an error by BIP definition but it's an error by the implemented code. Regards, Sergio.
