+  Version: 0.1.0
+  Requires: 352, 370, 371, 375
+
+ +== Introduction == + +=== Abstract === + +This document proposes an additional per input field for BIP 370 PSBTv2 that allows BIP 352 silent payment tweaks to be included in a PSBT of version 2. This field will be relevant to silent payment outputs spending. + +=== Motivation === + +BIPs 352 specify silent payments protocol, which provides a new way to create P2TR outputs and spend them. + +The existing PSBT fields are unable to support silent payments without changes, due to the new method by which outputs are created. + +BIP 375 and complementary BIP 374 specify how to create outputs locked with silent payment keys using PSBTs. But they don't specify how to unlock these outputs in a transaction.''' Why not including this new field in BIP 375?''' Historically, Silent Payments have been categorized by the perspective of the user of the protocol: receiver or sender. BIP 375 has followed this convention, and its stated on its title: Sending Silent Payments with PSBTs. Given that spending belongs to the sphere of the receiver, and considering this convention, this specification should be a different BIP. + +Therefore a new field must be defined to allow PSBTs to carry the information necessary for tweaking taproot keys without following the BIP 341 tagging scheme. + +== Specification == + +We use the following functions and conventions: + +* ser32(i): serializes a 32-bit unsigned integer ''i'' as a 4-byte sequence, most significant byte first. +* ser256(p): serializes the integer p as a 32-byte sequence, most significant byte first. +* serP(P): serializes the coordinate pair P = (x,y) as a byte sequence using SEC1's compressed form: (0x02 or 0x03) || ser256(x), where the header byte depends on the parity of the omitted Y coordinate. +* ''hashtag(x)'': refers to ''SHA256(SHA256(tag) || SHA256(tag) || x)''. + +=== Fields === + +{| class="wikitable" +!

Currently, there is no field prescribed for this. + +The PSBT_IN_BIP32_DERIVATION field cannot be used because of its different nature, neither can the PSBT_IN_TAP_MERKLE_ROOT field because of the tagged hash used for tweaking. + +A change of the hash tag used for silent payments to TapTweak or something compatible with taproot tweaking wouldn't make sense: although the raw tweak can be disguised as the script tree merkle root for spending, at the moment of verifying change outputs, you need the full script tree, and there would be none backing this fake merkle root. + +The use of proprietary fields is possible but brittle, as one may end up having to perform extra lookups for keys that are not unified across implementations. + +Assuming different tweaking schemes available, PSBT_IN_TAP_RAW_TWEAK would be a more general solution. However is unclear how a hardware wallet will determine what the content of the field were in the first more general case. In addition, PSBT fields are usually specified as to the nature of the contents. + +== Backward compatibility == + +This is a new field added to the existing PSBT format. Because PSBT is designed to be extensible, old software will ignore the new fields. + +== Reference implementation == + +'''''TODO''''' + +=== Test vectors === + +'''''TODO''''' + +== Changelog == + +* 0.1.0 (YYYY-MM-DD '''''TODO'''''): +** Initial version + +== Copyright == + +This document is licensed under the 2-clause BSD license. + +== Acknowledgements == + +Thanks to Craig Raw, macgyver, josibake and all others who participated in discussions on this topic. + +== References == + +
