Open harding opened 2 years ago
We should have a topic page for Betterhash (even though dead now) and Stratum v2. Maybe also Braidpool.
v3 transaction relay
x-only public keys
v3 transaction relay
v2 I think you mean? https://bip324.com/
I think @harding may have been referring to @glozow's version-3 transaction proposal, not the v2 P2P transport protocol
LN pathfinding (or some other topic where we can put pickhardt payments, LND mission control stuff, etc...)
LNURL
Something like "efficient invoice encoding" to capture all the times we've talked about encoding for QR codes and other stuff, including maybe LN invoices.
Taproot annex (when we have three mentions; I expect we'll have two mentions as of the 2023-06-14 newsletter).
Cross-input signature aggregation
I’ve gotten some requests to write “a BIP” about coin selection. Since that’s not something that different implementations need to coordinate on, I think it might be better to backfill the corresponding Optech topic page. I’d like to elaborate that page ~sooonish. What do you think?

Sounds great! Our longest page currently is soft fork activations, which is pretty darn long, so you should feel comfortable writing long and detailed if you want. I don't think we currently have a way to add footnotes to topic entries; if that's something you're gonna want, let me know and I can add that to the layout.
I'm currently just starting the process of doing a general refresh of our topic pages, so both for @murchandamus and everyone else, here are some of the things I'm thinking about in case they would affect your work or you just have opinions about them:
/en/topics/soft-fork-activation/history
. A summary of the sub-page will be listed on the main page along with a link to the details.We seem to have mentioned "headers-first sync" a fair number of times. It's not something I would have thought to create a topic about (the work on it was done years ago), but if we're going to keep mentioning it, it might be worth a topic. Also, I wrote a bunch about it for Bitcoin.org and that content is currently hard to find, so I'd kinda like to resurface it.
One or more topic pages for the John Law family of LN protocols. We've mentioned his stuff more than three times, with more mentions expected, but I'm not currently sure how to either group all of that together or how to split it into separate topics that each have three mentions. Anyway, putting it here so I think about it as part of my ongoing topics update initiative.
It was pointed out to me by Xavier Fiechter that we don’t have BIP329, and it looks like we have mentioned it in a few different newsletters already

https://bitcoinops.org/en/topics/wallet-labels/
I went with a more generic topic (wallet labels versus BIP329 wallet label export), but that topic was created primarily to capture the discussion about BIP329. A PR is welcome to add BIP329 as an alias.
CLTV expiry delta. See newsletter 274 for a list of many (but not all) previous places we've mentioned it.
Separate OP_CAT into into own topic (its currently combined with OP_CSFS
LN stuck funds problem, see:

BIP129
Weak blocks
"data carrier transactions" via https://github.com/bitcoinops/bitcoinops.github.io/issues/1462
topic page for something like "Specification management" to track BIP and BINANA meta discussion
DNS payment instructions as specified in BIP353, with relation to some other documentation (e.g. for LN).
txid malleability (second party and third party), may be able to simply copy text from MB3E when its license switches to CC-BY-SA in November.
Please post a comment with any suggested new topics. I'll add them to the list below if I plan to write a page for them eventually. Anyone can also open their own PR suggesting to add a topic.

Original post: Including the mention in upcoming newsletter 187, it looks like we have at least a half-dozen mentions of proof of reserves, so it seems to warrant a topic page. See also, BIP127 and earlier versions of BIP322
