Subject: [bitcoin-dev] BIP number request for wallet policies
Date: Sat, 16 Dec 2023 14:10:08 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <qCTW51rFF01GBS4D2xALWGMI_OTJavtqEJ5ztfOD1E65mA-Iwzc0Z8OqmGbGCmi2WxNq85cIMvOXD6qYvGOYGKF_QT5ACRd_E9UmisdIet4=@protonmail.com> (raw)
Wallet policies, a standard for implementing support for output descriptors in hardware signing devices was introduced by Salvatore Ingala a year and a half ago [0].
A pull request to the BIP repository was opened more than a year ago [1]. It's been waiting for a BIP number to be assigned since then.
There is now 3 majors hardware signing devices using this standard in production (Ledger, BitBox02, Jade). There has been multiple pings on the PR in the past year to get assigned a BIP number.
It would be nice to hear from the BIP editors about their expectations from the author, so we can move forward with this document specifying what's already become an industry standard.
