1. A transaction version number
2. A number indicating the quantity of inputs
1. An input 3. A list of all the inputs being spent
2. An amount
4. A number indicating the quantity of outputs
3. An output 5. A list of all the outputs being created.
6. A locktime
Each input in the list of inputs consists of:
1. A Previous Transaction hash indicating which transaction created the output that is being used as an input to this transaction.
2. An index indicating which of the one or more outputs created by that previous transaction are being spent as an input to this transaction.
3. A number indicating the quantity of bytes in the scriptSig
4. The scriptSig (typically the script that provides the ECDSA signature calculated with the private key).
5. A sequence number
Each output in the list of outputs consists of:
1. The value of the output represented as a number of satoshis
2. A number indicating the quantity of bytes in the scriptPubKey
3. The scriptPubKey (typically the script that provides the public key hash calculated from the bitcoin address)
To send bitcoins, you need the recipient's bitcoin address anda your private keys, your transaction must be verified by miners peer nodes on the network, for confirmations you are sometimes always forced to wait until they miners have finished mining a block. The bitcoin protocol is set so that each block takes roughly 10 minutes to mine.
