Verifying Transactions and Input/Output Equality
2024-04-05 · Ryan X. Charles
I have just finished implementing the transaction verifier in both typescript and rust and it has an important feature: it checks that the input values are equal to the output values.
Checking that input value = output value is consistent with my earlier declaration that change fees are eliminated. What this means in practice is that a transaction is not valid if it includes a change fee.
