📝 Original message:I can't find all of my earlier references around this, I thought I made a
thread on it, but as a reminder, my thoughts for mild tweaks to APO that
make it a bit less hacky are as follows:
- Remove OP_1 key punning and replace it with OP_GENERATOR and
OP_INTERNALKEY (maybe OP_EXTERNALKEY too?). The key punning is useful
generically, because I may want to reuse the internal key in conjunction
with a script path in some circumstances.
- Add an additional sequence field that is specific to a signature with no
other consensus meaning, so APO can be used with absolute timelocks. For
example, this makes it impossible for more than one ratchet to be
aggregated within a single transaction under any circumstance if their
sequences differ (not sure this is a good example, but an example
nonetheless).
- Replace tagged keys for APO with either a Checksig2 or a separate feature
flag that enables or disables APO behavior so that we can have programmatic
control over if APO is allowed for a given key (e..g., OP_IF <N> CSV DROP
CHECKSIG2 OP_ELSE CHECKSIG OP_ENDIF enables APO to be turned on after a
certain time, perhaps for a pre-approved backup transaction).
Overall, this would make eltoo ratchets look something like this:
<sig> <seq> OP_1 OP_INTERNALKEY OP_CHECKSIG2VERIFY <N> OP_GREATERTHAN
where checksig2 leaves seq on the stack which can be used to enforce the
ratchet.
and covenants like:
<sig> OP_1 OP_1 OP_GENERATOR OP_CHECKSIG2VERIFY
