Subject: Re: [bitcoin-dev] Debate: 64 bytes in OP_RETURN VS taproot OP_FALSE OP_IF OP_PUSH
Date: Sat, 18 Feb 2023 19:38:00 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <26619d50-669d-1a7d-82cb-c7de8795dc92@peersm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <Y+935dALZxEEVMmc@erisian.com.au>
So with datacarrier we can store data in taproot annex with one tx which
will be data and/or extension of the script validation via PUSH_ANNEX
I looked at your links and plenty of others, but had some hard time to
find the proposal
(https://github.com/bitcoin/bips/blob/9dc3f74b384f143b7f1bdad30dc0fe2529c8e63f/bip-annex.mediawiki
I suppose), when do you think datacarrier can happen for real on the
network?
Now I think the OP_RETURN debate remains relevant, it's a quite trivial
modification to do, from my standpoint it is certainly not intended to
store big things (but 80B, what do you want to do with this?), but if
people want to store big things and pay for it... what is the real
issue? (I saw your argument of "partial" block validation and others
like skipping witness data, at the end nodes must validate the whole thing)
