CPFP Bounty address
3FEUByMeaxrNmBCVYjvsnhyAjiUdat5i7M




Many thx...

On second thought, let me gen a new fresh address to countersign the multisig... address reuse is generally bad...

Please don't use 3LSXVA52FUddYEkfLbeSwuRvQt1qKbd4QM.  Bare with me a bit while I make a new address, and thus a new multisig.

Apologies for not thinking ahead.

Awesome Thx...

I'll get the address generated (or I suppose anyone could do it). 

I have some things to do right now, but will check back later.

Here is another public key for CPFP bounty multisig:
-> 02303fdba84202a9a23d19dcdaecfa728e2a044cc17fe966feddefe3edc20ee6e5

I can sign a PGP message if needed...

Yes... the request is to have a wallet GUI implement a "Rescue Transaction" button (or the like).  The button would issue a CPFP transaction.  The Eligius pool has been very successful at getting these transactions into the blockchain.

I started with a BIP before people informed me that CPFP existed.
BIP: https://github.com/d4n13/bips/blob/master/bip-00nn.mediawiki

Fantastic news... Thanks.

My address is 18MDTTiqPM8ZEo29Cig1wfGdkLNtvyorW5, the public key is in multiple TXs on the blockchain already.  I'll spin up PGP later to make it official.

I only anticipate one transaction for any of the 2-of-3 signers to have to sign.  Specifically the award of the bounty to the first dev to commit the change.

One more member needed for 2-of-3... Thx again.

So the bounty would be for wallets that implement CPFP on the client side? CPFP already has fairly mature code for relaying and mining, I think. If so, and if I'll only need to sign transactions rarely, then I'll do it. 2-of-3 is probably better for such things, though.

Others in a bit

Apologies on the large distro, but I would like to request the help of a well respected person on this forum.

My request for CPFP client-side controls: https://github.com/d4n13/bips/blob/master/bip-00nn.mediawiki

I've been trying to advocate CPFP to transactions out of the mempool.  I have a working script and would like to volunteer my time as a "Transaction Lifeguard" fishing transactions out of the mempool.  It is fairly easy, and I fished one of my transactions out after 8 days.  Since everyone needs this, I was going to do it for a small fee (3 mBTC) that would be paid to an address.  That address would hold the funds to pay a wallet developer to add CPFP to a mainstream wallet.  Since me controlling the wallet would sound like a complete scam, I wanted to offer to create a 2-of-2 multisig that a respected entity on the forum shared.  My idea goes something like this.

• Create multi-sig addr { $myProfileBTCAddr, $yourProfileBTCAddr } -> $bountyAddr
• Post a thread (in Bitcoin) advertising the CPFP bounty campaign and $bountyAddr
• Post a thread (in MarketPlace) offering transaction lifeguard services
• People requesting rescue on their SPEND TX would send( $thierTransID, $addrOfIntendedTxRecpt, $mBTCwillingToPay )
• People requesting rescue on their RECIEVING TX would send ( $thierTransID, $thierRecvAddr, $mBTCwillingToPay )
• From (4,5), determine the address the requester owns in the unspent TX outputs ( $unConfTxOutput )
• Create a high-fee CPFP transaction ( $unConfTxOutput -> { $unConfTxOutput, $bountyAddr } )
• Mail / Post the TX hex back to the requester for them to sign in mycelium or bitcoin-qt, or whatever
• Help requester submit the CPFP TX to Eligius for processing

Each transaction rescued will add 3 mBTC ($1) or more to the $bountyAddr and entice more people to submit Pull requests to claim it.

Obviously I need an address to include in step (1), and I don't how easy step (8) will be for the average user.  Also, don't know of 3 mBTC is the right price, or if this whole idea has gone sideways.

I can of course proceed on my own, but I seriously doubt if people would trust me to give the money to the devs and not just run off with it.

Thx.
