I see that Adam is correct. Unfortunately this SF would make Felix's
confidential transactions
more complicated. The blinding and unblinding transactions would have to
be created with
minimal output value
This design purposefully does not distinguish leaf nodes from internal nodes.
That way it chained invocations can be used to validate paths longer than 32
branches. Do you see a vulnerability due to this lack of distinction?

Thanks for the proposal. Aside from potential privacy implications of
revealing the derivation path for non BIP-44, 45, 49 HD nodes, this scheme
is superior to the alternate {x,y,z}pub idea. Since coin_type is part of
the path, the 'xpub' prefix may be shared across all coins if they so
choose. Thi

The fast hash for internal nodes needs to use an IV that is not the
standard SHA-256 IV. Instead needs to use some other fixed value, which
should itself be the SHA-256 hash of some fixed string (e.g. the string
"BIP ???" or "Fash SHA-256").
As it stands, I believe someone can claim a leaf node as
The pattern used by Felix Weiss' BIP for Confidential Transactions
depends on or is tidier with 0-value outputs.

As long as an unspendable outputs (OP_RETURN outputs for example) with
amount=0 are still allowed I don't see it being an issue for anything.

I would like to propose two new script features to be added to the
bitcoin protocol by means of soft-fork activation. These features are
a new opcode, MERKLE-BRANCH-VERIFY (MBV) and tail-call execution
semantics.
In brief summary, MERKLE-BRANCH-VERIFY allows script authors to force

Someone could have created a timelocked transaction that depends on a zero
value output.
Hi Luke,
thanks for your feedback.
I can try to coordinate with the OpenAssets group, but the base
requirements are completely different. For example, they are very far
from any form of plausible deniability.
Please tell me which problems are not solved technically, so that I can
try to fix
I think you could check out and coordinate with the OpenAssets proposal.
Your current draft also claims to solve a lot of problems that it doesn't
actually solve technically...

Hi Dan,
thank you for your feedback. Let me clarify that the plausible
deniability is a property of the protocol. If this will become a BIP,
and will be approved, there will be wallets that will manage tokens. In
the meantime, and in the future, it is important that a person with a

I would like to propose a standard protocol to manage tokens on top of

Let's move forward with the simplest solution that solves the problem and
achieves consensus! Version bytes {x,y,z} fits the bill.
