Sounds interesting, however, even after a couple of days, I cannot see =
how you maintain protection against double spend using OP_CHECKEXPSIG. =
It is not until you redeem the OP_CHECKEXPSIG transaction that you =
reveal which former transactions that was involved?

I guess I am missing a point here?
