Add missing memo field for burnchain operations

Open netrome opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

The PreStxOp, StackStxOp and DelegateStxOp burnchain operations are using less than 80 bytes of the OP_RETURN data. We would like to save the remaining bytes in these cases as a memo: Vec<u8> field which can be used for in-band signaling between miners.

This issue originates from a PR comment: link.

Assigning this to @netrome so it has an owner. Also, I don't think this is consensus-critical; we just store the data in the sortition DB but don't make any decisions based on it.

Sounds good. This is low prio so I'll take care of preparing a PR for this when I find the time.

Sorry but I won't have time to implement this. Should we close this issue? It feels like a low prio and it has been re-assigned multiple times.
