Ok. I was thinking with another definition SPV proof.
For me a SPV proof is a sequence of bits which can be transmitted as part of a non-interactive protocol that convincingly establishes for a client without access to the block chain that a block B is part of the best-chain. I understand that SPV nodes require SPV proofs as defined in my definition, but I can't realize how to prove that SPV nodes require SPV proofs under your definition. So your definition sounds to me like one possible solution, but not the need. Is your definition something well-established in the community? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Start Your Social Network Today - Download eXo Platform Build your Enterprise Intranet with eXo Platform Software Java Based Open Source Intranet - Social, Extensible, Cloud Ready Get Started Now And Turn Your Intranet Into A Collaboration Platform http://p.sf.net/sfu/ExoPlatform _______________________________________________ Bitcoin-development mailing list Bitcoin-development@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bitcoin-development
