waxwing: well, searching for Zn is not exactly productive
waxwing
oh i c :)
oakpacific
or Zp for that matter
waxwing
if you want to read about those groups, maybe just search for groups generally as those always come into play somewhere. unless it's just talking about axioms. and even then.
or .. if you're searching, is the fact that the name is verbose a disadvantage or an advantage? :)
oakpacific
well, now i see i can searh with the phrase modulo n/p group
waxwing: long name has a disadvantage, people name it in a slightly different way and they can't be found
mkarrer joined the channel
waxwing
oakpacific: am i missing something or could you have TOR for a postal service?
oakpacific
what postal service do you mean?
waxwing
well you know, encrypt the next address that a package gets sent to
i mean physical packages
oakpacific
waxwing: oh, no wonder i didn't get it the first time :)
but the thing is, the exit node faces way more consequences in RL
waxwing
oakpacific: yes, true.
but if thats the only objection it's still interesting
oakpacific
MITM? you need to seal the package really professionally i guess
well possibly in an abstract way it's relevant; my question is simply, why did they make that an array, what's the scenario where there's more than one?
like i said, i perfectly understand it could be none
oakpacific
also it's a multisig addr
waxwing
what's a multisig address?
oakpacific
i meant doesn't it start with a "m", what's it actually?
waxwing
testnet/regtest
oakpacific
sorry yeah
never used it
waxwing
as i said above, i understsand that if it's p2sh there doesn't have to be an address here (although there *could* be a msig)
oakpacific
waxwing: yeah
waxwing
oakpacific: you have used testnet, i saw you :)
oakpacific
but otoh, if, let's say if, the redeeming condition is, a signed script from one of a list of addresses, i don't see how that wouldn't work
waxwing
would that be p2sh though?
hmm hang on, maybe it's raw/bare multisig. old style.
oakpacific
well, to the best of my memory, they also used single address...
waxwing
yeah, almost certainly
i still don't understand it, but 99.99% it will never matter :)
oakpacific
waxwing: well, you could experiment yourself
waxwing
how could i do that? if i don't know what can cause it to happen, then i can't make it happen :)
