Hi, Jonas In order to spend the coins, a valid signature will need to be present in the attestation. Even if it's a 1/1024 multisig, a valid public key signature pair will need to be provided. The merkle path would then be how the arbitrary data could be encoded. In my mind this is a highly impractical scenario that gets exponentially more complex, and only works 32 bytes at a time.
Does that make sense?
