2012-10-20Compact serialization for scriptsPieter Wuille
Special serializers for script which detect common cases and encode them much more efficiently. 3 special cases are defined: * Pay to pubkey hash (encoded as 21 bytes) * Pay to script hash (encoded as 21 bytes) * Pay to pubkey starting with 0x02, 0x03 or 0x04 (encoded as 33 bytes) Other scripts up to 121 bytes require 1 byte + script length. Above that, scripts up to 16505 bytes require 2 bytes + script length.

2012-05-24Refactor: split CKeyID/CScriptID/CTxDestination from CBitcoinAddressPieter Wuille
This introduces internal types: * CKeyID: reference (hash160) of a key * CScriptID: reference (hash160) of a script * CTxDestination: a boost::variant of the former two CBitcoinAddress is retrofitted to be a Base58 encoding of a CTxDestination. This allows all internal code to only use the internal types, and only have RPC and GUI depend on the base58 code. Furthermore, the header dependencies are a lot saner now. base58.h is at the top (right below rpc and gui) instead of at the bottom. For the rest: wallet -> script -> keystore -> key. Only keystore still requires a forward declaration of CScript. Solving that would require splitting script into two layers.

I originally created a pull to replace the "COPYING" in crypter.cpp and crypter.h, but it turned out that COPYING was actually the correct file.

2012-04-17Further reduce header dependenciesPieter Wuille
This commit removes the dependency of serialize.h on PROTOCOL_VERSION, and makes this parameter required instead of implicit. This is much saner, as it makes the places where changing a version number can have an influence obvious.

2012-01-09Compact signatures with compressed pubkeysPieter Wuille
2012-01-09Compressed pubkeysPieter Wuille
This patch enabled compressed pubkeys when -compressedpubkeys is passed. These are 33 bytes instead of 65, and require only marginally more CPU power when verifying. Compressed pubkeys have a different corresponding address, so it is determined at generation. When -compressedpubkeys is given, all newly generated addresses will use a compressed key, while older/other addresses keep using normal keys. Unpatched clients will relay and verify these transactions.

Introduce a new type of signatures that are only 65 bytes long, and allow reconstruction of the public key that was used to create the signature.

2011-07-17Use CBitcoinAddress instead of string/uint160Pieter Wuille
Instead of conversion functions between pubkey/uint160/address in base58.h, have a fully fledged class CBitcoinAddress (CAddress was already taken) to represent addresses.
