Hi,
At SeedHammer we're interested in standard, compact output descriptors to m=
ake
self-contained metal engraved backups feasible. To that end, we're proposin=
g a
descriptor format based on the PSBT binary encoding. The format has not rea=
ched
widespread consensus, never mind adoption, so at this point we're solicitin=
g
comments before formally proposing it as a BIP.
See [proposal], [implementation] and [playground] for details and examples.
The format is a binary and compact serialization specification for the
[wallet-policies] BIP. Features:
- Based on the binary [BIP174] PSBT format, including re-using the compact
PSBT_GLOBAL_XPUB encoding for extended keys.
- The descriptor itself is encoded in the same textual format as described
in BIPs 380-386 (+389).
- Key references (always) use the wallet-policies format @<key-index>.
- Miniscript is trivially supported, except inline keys are not allowed, an=
d
pk(NAME) expressions are replaced with indexed (@<idx>) key references.
- Metadata such as labels and birthdate blocks are encoded as PSBT
map entries.
Known issues:
- CBOR vs PSBT. Blockchain Commons believes[0] that a CBOR based format is =
better
because it is a widely used binary encoding standard, whereas we believe =
the
complexity of CBOR doesn't justify its cost compared to the PSBT encoding
already widely supported by wallet software.
- The proposal specifies a separate header and magic; should the format ins=
tead be
an extension to the PSBT format?
Thanks,
E
