Differentiate between p2kh and p2sh with version instead of prefix.

Uses version == 0 for p2kh, version == 8 for p2sh. Lower 3 bits are reserved.

We should rename this as this is clearly not bech32 anymore. cashaddress maybe ?

216 ↗(On Diff #1384)

You can make these uint8_t which would remove the need for cast.

226 ↗(On Diff #1384)

unsigned char => uint8_t

braces around ifs.

327 ↗(On Diff #1384)

Let's not add more reference to global state. Pass the params down.

Please format like:

/**

You can put the comment on one line and let clang-format do its magic.

Hash the lower 5 bits of all characters + a zero.

Use ':' as a separator.

This is a huge change all over the code base. Can we put this one on the wish list?

I think this diff should be splet as right now, it is doing 2 things at once:

  • Implement the format
  • Integrate the format.

Let's focus on the first one and do the second one in another diff. We don't want any problem with one to slow down the other and vice versa.

OK

Add a compyright notice for the bitcoin developers

35 ↗(On Diff #1393)

We will change that one slightly, but we can use it in the meantime.

126 ↗(On Diff #1393)

uint8_t, no unsigned char . There are numerous others.

130 ↗(On Diff #1393)

We should use prefix instead of HRP

141 ↗(On Diff #1393)

We discussed this already, just go throught the lower 5 bits of all char and then a 0. There is no point checksuming the higher bits as they are constants.

156 ↗(On Diff #1393)

+8

158 ↗(On Diff #1393)

uint64_t

This needs to be changed to test the format. We should probably rewrite it anyway rather than backporting the one from core.

src/utilstrencodings.h
145 ↗(On Diff #1393)

This would deserve a few tests.

I'll update this diff when D575 or D576 have landed

dagurval edited edge metadata.

Added support for encoding CTxDestination with base58 (the old way). Rebased on top of D576.

There are various self contained changes here that could go in now.

The first obvious one is the chain param change.

Another one is the logic for cashaddr key extraction, that can be added and tested as a standalone change without being wired in the existing logic.
