UTXO commitments
Open, HighPublic

Description

This is the parent task for any work which must be completed to enable UTXO commitments in the Bitcoin Cash protocol, and implementation in the Bitcoin-ABC node.

Enables:

  • Fast synchronization of recently initialized nodes.

Trade-offs:

  • Added code complexity around synchronization. However, this functionality is optional.
  • Additional code and overhead required for UTXO commitment maintenance.
