SPV is for checking validity of transactions that have already entered the blockchain, as I understand it. My proposal requires nodes to validate transactions that are unconfirmed, and to commit to the validation by doing a POW on it. > On an unrelated note, it sounds like your proposal will significantly > increase the data size of every transaction, which will create even more > contention for block space. If we stipulate that the coinbase fields only hold space for a single pubkey, then the entire block header including the two coinbases should only take an extra 100 bytes or so. Transactions are already routinely 250 bytes+. So an increase of roughly 33%. _______________________________________________ bitcoin-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/bitcoin-dev
