Good morning Greg and John,
I am not as sanguine here; SegWit activation was already delayed relative to
commonly-broadcast expectations, yet many services *still* do not support
sending to SegWit v0 addresses even now.
On the other hand, the major benefit of taproot is the better privacy and

Hi,
I want to add to John Newbery's suggestion of using implicit even/odd only
public keys and tweaked public keys in taproot and suggest the following:
If everything is implicit then the only reason for the first byte of the
control block(`c[0]`) is the tapscript leaf version.
I suggest that this

FWIW, I think this would be
I have a comment about the 'input_index' of the transaction digest for
taproot signatures. It is currently listed as 2 bytes. I think it would
be better to expand that to 4 bytes.
The two byte limit is derived from the block size / weight limit, which
limits the maximum size of a transaction, whi

Given a secret key k and public key P=(x,y), a signer with the knowledge of
k
can sign for -P=(x,p-y) since -k is the secret key for that point. Encoding

This would be especially useful for things like OP_CHECKBLOCKATHEIGHT:

Perhaps
Thanks for the comments so far!
I'm going to respond to some of the comments here. Things which I plan
to address with changes in the BIP I'll leave for later.

Aside: if you want to commit to something extra *with* the witness
program, you could use eit
Hey Pieter,
I think this is a reasonable collection of changes that make sense in
combination. Some initial feedback and questions.

There are multiple references to "space savings", but no rationale for
treating "space" as something to save or even define. The costs are in CPU
time and I/O (which "space saving" doesn't necessarily reduce) and bandwidth
(which can often be reduced without "space saving" in commitments). The
Hello everyone,
Here are two BIP drafts that specify a proposal for a Taproot
softfork. A number of ideas are included:
* Taproot to make all outputs and cooperative spends indistinguishable
from eachother.
* Merkle branches to hide the unexecuted branches in scripts.
* Schnorr signatures enable
