That way most existing problematic\n\u003e implementations would be fixed and no doors were closed for people\n\u003e experimenting with other stuff - tx v 3 would probably then be called\n\u003e experimental transactions.\n\u003e\n\u003e Just to be clear: this change is not directly intended to avoid\n\u003e \"incidents\". It will take way too long to deploy this. Software should\n\u003e deal with malleability. This is a longer-term solution intended to\n\u003e provide non-malleability guarantees for clients that a) are upgraded\n\u003e to use them  b) willing to restrict their functionality. As there are\n\u003e several intended use cases for malleable transactions (the sighash\n\u003e flags pretty directly are a way to signify what malleabilities are\n\u003e *wanted*), this is not about outlawing malleability.\n\u003e\n\u003e While we could right now make all these rules non-standard, and\n\u003e schedule a soft fork in a year or so to make them illegal, it would\n\u003e mean removing potential functionality that can only be re-enabled\n\u003e through a hard fork. This is significantly harder, so we should think\n\u003e about it very well in advance.\n\u003e\n\u003e About new transaction and block versions: this allows implementing and\n\u003e automatically scheduling a softfork without waiting for wallets to\n\u003e upgrade. The non-DER signature change was discussed for over two\n\u003e years, and implemented almost a year ago, and we still notice wallets\n\u003e that don't support it. We can't expect every wallet to be instantly\n\u003e modified (what about hardware wallets like the Trezor, for example?\n\u003e they may not just be able to be upgraded). Nor is it necessary: if\n\u003e your software only spends confirmed change, and tracks all debits\n\u003e correctly, there is no need.\n\u003e\n\u003e --\n\u003e Pieter\n\u003e\n\u003e\n\u003e ------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\u003e Managing the Performance of Cloud-Based Applications\n\u003e Take advantage of what the Cloud has to offer - Avoid Common Pitfalls.\n\u003e Read the Whitepaper.\n\u003e\n\u003e http://pubads.g.doubleclick.net/gampad/clk?id=121054471\u0026iu=/4140/ostg.clktrk\n\u003e _______________________________________________\n\u003e Bitcoin-development mailing list\n\u003e Bitcoin-development at lists.sourceforge.net\n\u003e https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bitcoin-development\n\u003e\n-------------- next part --------------\nAn HTML attachment was scrubbed...\nURL: \u003chttp://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/attachments/20140220/d3b847d3/attachment.html\u003e"}
