🗒️ Summary of this message: Bitcoin PoW Anchoring protocol reset allows for a special bitcoin transaction providing publically-identifiable OP_RETURN information about a new miner single-use-seal.
📝 Original message:Hi John,
Thank you for the question. We have discussed this case in the paper, second paragraph of the “Bitcoin PoW Anchoring” Section:
> If a party spends current miner single-use-seal without creating a commitment - or committing to a header without sufficient PoW, such closing is considered invalid; in this case, any party is allowed to create a special bitcoin transaction providing publically-identifiableOP_RETURNinformation ("announcement") about a new miner single-use-seal (protocol reset); only the firstOP_RETURNannouncement which is closed with a proper procedure is considered valid under the consensus rules.
Kind regards,
Maxim Orlovsky
