-The usage of the \memo is by agreement between the sender and recipient of the
-\note. The \memo \SHOULD be encoded as one of:
-
-\begin{itemize}
-  \item a UTF-8 human-readable string \cite{Unicode}, padded by appending zero bytes; or
-  \item the byte $\hexint{F6}$ followed by $511$ $\hexint{00}$ bytes, indicating ``no memo''; or
-  \item any other sequence of $\MemoByteLength$ bytes starting with a byte value $\hexint{F5}$
-        or greater (which is therefore not a valid UTF-8 string), as specified in \cite{ZIP-302}.
-\end{itemize}

-When the first byte value is less than $\hexint{F5}$, wallet software is expected to strip any
-trailing zero bytes and then display the resulting \mbox{UTF-8} string to the recipient user,
-where applicable. Incorrect UTF-8-encoded byte sequences \SHOULD be displayed as replacement
-characters (\ReplacementCharacter).

-In other cases, the contents of the \memo \SHOULDNOT be displayed unless otherwise specified
