That's actually a good idea. Perhaps I can move the algorithms (of BIP137) and
stuff to Bitcoin Wiki, and then convert the BIP to strictly a "Taproot message
signing BIP".
Even though I already know the chances of such a BIP being numbered is low, at
least the most important part will be
Hi Ali!
Nice work. Since it seems this is a strict superset of BIP137, why not just
focus on things that you are adding (Taproot) while saying your BIP is an
expansion of BIP137?
Your approach make it unnecessarily hard to figure out whether you are
changing anything in handling of ECDSA

In that case, I propose the following:
- I scrap the Taproot/Schorr and the two extensions inside the BIP, which will
Also, I forgot to write in the previous message, that this BIP is not a
standard - that's the reason I raised the N+1 problem in the first place. As
mentioned previously, it's strictly limited to a reference manual - which
could've been hosted anywhere else (such as my own website), but these
Yeah, I have a specific reason to advance this first (emphasis on the word
first).
I briefly mentioned in the BIP that BIP322 has superior message verification
capabilities. This is true, but it suffers from the drawback that wallets are
not using it. What they are using right now is a chaotic

Thanks for doing this, it looks great Ali!
COLDCARD and other Coinkite products will conform to this spec, if we don't
already.

My sincere apologies, the link returns a 404 (trailing dot). The correct link
to the BIP is
