This new opcode enables scripts to be given proof that +the receiver can carry out or has carried out a previous transaction. +I'm currently working on a paper that discusses using this opcode for +anonymous transactions. + +Name: OP_CHECKEXPSIG +Stack before: <sig><pk><hash> +Stack after: T/F, where is true if sig is a ECDSA signature under pk +for the hash hash. (Hash is the hash of a message). +Uses: Preexisting digital cash techniques relied on keeping track of a +list of turned in notes to forbid double spending. Using +OP_CHECKEXPSIG we can instead pass the script that gives the nth note +value proof that the notes {1,...n-1} were turned in and are distinct. +This enables a coupling of the strong double spend protection of +Bitcoin with traditional digital cash's strong anonymity. + +Sincerely, +Watson Ladd + + |
