Bitcoin Private Key Locked Transactions
Bitcoin smart contracts allow the development of new protocols on top of Bitcoin itself. This usually involves the definition of complex scripts, far beyond the requirement of a single signature. In this paper we introduce the concept of private key locked transactions, a novel type of transactions that allows the atomic verification of a given private key (belonging to an asymmetric key pair) ...

The appearance of Bitcoin in 2009[Nak09] has enabled the trustless transfer of funds by means of a publically verifiable distributed ledger. However, this ledger exposes all transactions, resulting in extremely poor privacy for Bitcoin users. In this paper, we describe some new technologies that would reduce the amount of publically inferrable information on the Bitcoin blockchain. We start wit...

An enhancement is suggested to make Bitcoin transaction amounts hidden to all but the sender and receiver. In each transaction, the output amounts are encrypted with the public keys of the respective receivers. Only the transaction fee is publicly revealed, to allow miners to prioritise transactions. A homomorphic commitment for each transaction proves that the sum of the transaction inputs mat...

In this paper, we show that covenants can be implemented with a new CHECKSIGFROMSTACK operation that verifies a signature for a message passed as an argument. When t...
