draft: New topic - mimblewimble, all the bits #309

Closed CjS77 closed 1 year ago

CjS77 commented 1 year ago

This post describes the key elements of vanilla Mimblewimble, what purpose they perform, and the bad things that could happen if they're not there.

It also describes a few pieces that were introduced to the protocol as a result of to omissions and oversights in the MW whitepaper.

@SWvheerden -- anything we should add here?

SWvheerden commented 1 year ago

The only thing I think of what can do is perhaps adding a piece of what we changed on Tari, aka scripts and the script offset.

We never talk about scripts, but we do talk about preventing cut-through but we don't link to that or explain it.

CjS77 commented 1 year ago

It might be better to have a separate TLU topic on that.

We've also got the content of the TariScript paper that can form part of that, or even be its own article

SWvheerden commented 1 year ago

mm yeah, perhaps a link to the RFC or the paper is more than sufficient.
