Hi, the proposal seems to be quite confused about how it's going to do that. It mentions upgrading existing opcodes, which is a hardfork, not soft fork, at least without using a different leaf version. But it also mentions OP_SUCCESSX which are different opcodes. I think it needs some analysis. (leaf version seems better intuitively) I'd also love to see analysis why stop at 64 bits and not go all the way to 256 which could be useful for cryptography. Anyway, pushing amounts on the stack would be great. Though I'm surprised you're only proposing the sum, not individual outputs. Why? Good luck!
