Re: [Bitcoin-development] BIP Draft: Atomic Cross Chain Transfer Protocol

2014-04-30 Thread Tier Nolan
I updated again.

The new version only requires non-standard transactions on one of the two
networks.

Next step is a simple TCP / RPC server that will implement the protocol to
trade between testnet and mainnet.  Timeouts of much less than 24 hours
should be possible now.

Sorry, that is the names come from the original thread, where I was
outlining the idea.  I updated the names.

The bail in transactions are only signed by one of the parties.  They are
kept secret until the refund/payout transactions are all properly signed.

There is a malleability risk though, hence the need for the 3rd party.

It works on the same refund principle as payment channels.

TX0 is not broadcast until the refund transactions are complete.

This is a draft at the moment.

There is an implementation of (almost) this system but not by me.  This
proposal reduces the number of non-standard transaction types required.

A full implement is the next step.

I can do that.

Instead of TX0, TX1, etc, can you put some kind of meaningful identifier for 
these transactions?

TX1 and TX2 *cannot* be signed until after TX0 is completely signed by both 
parties. After TX0 is signed, but before TX2 is signed, either party could 
walk away or otherwise hold the funds hostage. The sequence of signing 
proposed in this BIP is *not possible to perform*. How did you implement and 
test this? :/

What is the purpose of the OP_EQUAL_VERIFY in TX4? I don't see a use...

IMO, there should be separate BIPs for the exchange itself, and the protocol 
to negotiate the exchange. I would recommend changing the latter from JSON-RPC 
to some extension of the Payment Protocol, if possible.

Perhaps it would be good to only support compressed keys, to discourage use of 
uncompressed ones..
