Dear friends and colleagues,
I believe this current version of the protocol and its documentation, now
including a diagram answers the questions raised so far:

Hello, Dave,
I'm afraid I didn't understand your objection. It would be great to have a
direct, real-time conversation with you, if you have the availability. Be my

Dear all,
Below goes reference to diagram of key derivation of current (hopefully final)
version of my proposed protocol, which, now, doesn't rely on FFM cryptosystem.

Hi Yuri,
I think it's worth noting that for transactions with an equal number of
P2TR keypath spends (inputs) and P2TR outputs, the amount of space used
in a transaction by the serialization of the signature itself (16 vbytes
per input) ranges from a bit over 14% of transaction size (1-input,
Dear all,
Upon a few more days working on my proposed protocol, I've found a way to waive
the need for:
1) mining the conventional public key;
2) user broadcasting 2 distinct payloads a few blocks apart;
Up to 66% footprint reduction.
I'll be publishing and submitting it as BIP soon. Those who

Upon second thoughts, I concluded have to issue a correction on my last
correspondence. Where I wrote:

There are three possible cryptanalysis to LAMPPRI in my scheme:
1. From ADDR alone before T0-1 (to be precise, publishing of (TX, SIG));
2. From ADDR and (TX, SIG) after T0-1 (to be precise, publishing of (TX, SIG));
3. Outmine the rest of mining community starting from a disadvantage of not

Does this affect the security model WRT chain reorganizations? In the
classic doublespend attack, an attacker can only redirect UTXOs that they
spent. With this proposal, if I understand it correctly, an attacker could

You are right to point out that my proposal was lacking defense against
rainbow-table, because there is a simple solution for it:

Thank you for putting yourself through the working of carefully analyzing my
proposition, Boris!
1) My demonstration concludes 12 bytes is still a very conservative figure for
the hashes. I'm not sure where did you get the 14 bytes figure. This is
2*(14-12) = 4 bytes less.
2) Thank you for poi

Schnorr signature has size 64 bytes (serialized format consists of x
coordinate of R and of s, 32 bytes each).

Hi Yuri,
While not exactly the same, the idea of using Lamport chains was analyzed
circa 2012 in the context of cryptocurrencies.
I proposed a new signature scheme called MAVE [1], and then a
cryptocurrency scheme called MAVEPAY [2] to reduce the size of signatures
to a minimum of 3 hash verificati
