Terminology
|
||
===========
|
||
|
||
The key words "MUST" and "MAY" in this document are to be interpreted as described in
|
||
RFC 2119. [#RFC2119]_
|
||
|
||
The character § is used when referring to sections of the Zcash Protocol Specification
|
||
[#protocol]_.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Abstract
|
||
========
|
||
|
||
This proposal defines a new Zcash peer-to-peer transaction format, which includes data that supports Zcash Shielded Assets on the Orchard shielded pool [#protocol]_. The
|
||
new transaction format defines well-bounded regions of the serialized form to
|
||
serve each of the existing pools of funds, and adds and describes a new elements
|
||
containing ZSA-specific elements.
|
||
|
||
This ZIP also depends upon and defines modifications to the computation of the values
|
||
**TxId Digest**, **Signature Digest**, and **Authorizing Data Commitment** defined by ZIP
|
||
244 [#zip-0244]_.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Motivation
|
||
==========
|
||
|
||
The new Orchard shielded pool requires serialized data elements that are distinct from
|
||
any previous Zcash transaction. Since ZIP 244 was activated in NU5, the
|
||
v5 and later serialized transaction formats are not consensus-critical.
|
||
Thus, this ZIP defines format that can easily accommodate future extensions,
|
||
where elements or a given pool are kept separate.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Requirements
|
||
============
|
||
|
||
The new format must fully support the Orchard protocol.
|
||
|
||
The new format must fully support Zcash Shielded Assets (ZSAs).
|
||
|
||
The new format should lend itself to future extension or pruning to add or remove
|
||
value pools.
|
||
|
||
The computation of the non-malleable transaction identifier hash must include all
|
||
newly incorporated elements except those that attest to transaction validity.
|
||
|
||
The computation of the commitment to authorizing data for a transaction must include
|
||
all newly incorporated elements that attest to transaction validity.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Non-requirements
|
||
================
|
||
|
||
More general forms of extensibility, such as definining a key/value format that
|
||
allows for parsers that are unaware of some components, are not required.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Specification
|
||
=============
|
||
|
||
All fields in this specification are encoded as little-endian.
|
||
|
||
The Zcash transaction format for transaction version 6 is as follows:

:math:`\mathtt{nSpendsSapling} + \mathtt{nOutputsSapling} > 0`. If ``valueBalanceSapling``

correspondence to the elements of ``vSpendsSapling`` and MUST be ordered such that the

``vOutputsSapling`` and MUST be ordered such that the proof at a given index corresponds

``vSpendAuthSigsOrchard``, each have a 1:1 correspondence to the elements of

``vActionsOrchard`` and MUST be ordered such that the proof or signature at a given
|
||
index corresponds to the ``OrchardAction`` at the same index.

||
* For coinbase transactions, the ``enableSpendsOrchard`` bit MUST be set to ``0``.
|
||
|
||
The encodings of ``tx_in``, and ``tx_out`` are as in a version 4 transaction (i.e.
|
||
unchanged from Canopy). The encodings of ``SpendDescriptionV6``, ``OutputDescriptionV6``
|
||
and ``OrchardAction`` are described below. The encoding of Sapling Spends and Outputs has
|
||
changed relative to prior versions in order to better separate data that describe the
|
||
effects of the transaction from the proofs of and commitments to those effects, and for
|
||
symmetry with this separation in the Orchard-related parts of the transaction format.
