That way any script with a CHECKSIG is protected from witness extension malleability, and those rare ones that do not use signature operations can have a “DEPTH 1 EQUALVERIFY” at the end. This allows for much simpler tail-call evaluation as you don’t need to pass arguments on the alt-stack. > On Sep 30, 2017, at 6:13 PM, Luke Dashjr via bitcoin-dev <bitcoin-dev at lists.linuxfoundation.org> wrote: > > I've put together a first draft for what I hope to be a good next step for > Segwit and Bitcoin scripting: > https://github.com/luke-jr/bips/blob/witnessv1/bip-witnessv1.mediawiki > > This introduces 5 key changes: > > 1.
