Subject: Re: [bitcoin-dev] Safer NOINPUT with output tagging
Date: Wed, 20 Feb 2019 03:22:07 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <B58087BD-50F2-40DF-BDF0-8D1FDFDCDE03@xbt.hk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <201902191904.04412.luke@dashjr.org>

This only depends on the contract between the payer and payee. If the contract says address reuse is unacceptable, it’s unacceptable. It has nothing to do with how the payee spends the coin. We can’t ban address reuse at protocol level (unless we never prune the chain), so address reuse could only be prevented at social level.

Using NOINPUT is also a very weak excuse: NOINPUT always commit to the value. If the payer reused an address but for different amount, the payee can’t claim the coin is lost due to previous NOINPUT use. A much stronger way is to publish the key after a coin is well confirmed.
