ben_vulpes: getdata is used in response to inv, to retrieve the content of a specific object, and is usually sent after receiving an inv packet, after filtering known elements. It can be used to retrieve transactions, but only if they are in the memory pool or relay set - arbitrary access to transactions in the chain is not allowed to avoid having clients start to depend on nodes having full transaction indexes (which modern nodes do not).

ben_vulpes: problem being nobody involved can figure if anyone involved with the charade will actually increase deal surface area

ben_vulpes: <kakobrekla> [] fuckin key party and assumption of socialization << another kakobrekla line worth reposting
ben_vulpes: as someone somewhere once said "i don't hire developers who spell well, i hire developers who mispell consistently."
ben_vulpes: not that anyone should expect a "developer" to understand how to write english well - it's hard and takes a lot of dedicated study.
ben_vulpes: "pushed by" not "initiated by". furthermore, doesn't make the usage somehow acceptable.
ben_vulpes: "their" implies more than one party.
ben_vulpes: if you don't know the gender, say "his or her"
ben_vulpes: a plural cannot by definition be a singular thing.
ben_vulpes: as a valid construct.
ben_vulpes: it's only ever pushed by "anti sexists"
ben_vulpes: nevermind that them/their is actually incorrect grammar if not used in reference to more than one person
ben_vulpes: <danielpbarron> i tried to make a raw tx once, got rejected by my own node for having too small a fee << heinous
ben_vulpes: brain now contains c++, not sure if improvement
ben_vulpes: learned some
ben_vulpes pissing on fences
ben_vulpes: "whole blockchain" << and more specifically, a trivial lookup of txids
ben_vulpes: *entirely* different project
ben_vulpes: raw transactions
ben_vulpes: no no no
ben_vulpes: say i have the transaction hash (aka txid) and output index - how do i get the pubkey those coins were sent to?
ben_vulpes: how do i get the pubkey for a given output?
ben_vulpes: a user-supplied privkey.
ben_vulpes: (one can sign anything at any time - that's not the problem. the problems crop up in a) knowing the sigs are valid and b) the multi-input, multi-privkey transaction generation use-case: how am i to know which privkeys are to be used to sign which inputs, and furthermore [and somewhat recursively] how do i know those signatures to be valid?)
ben_vulpes: danielpbarron: make sense?
ben_vulpes: otherwise you just sign hash of txn, index in txn, and have no way to double check that you produced a valid signature corresponding to the pubkey to which those funds were transmitted originally.
ben_vulpes: to verify that you've created a valid transaction, you have to have the entirety of the previous output on hand to examine the public key
ben_vulpes: to use the modern txn api, yeah
ben_vulpes: i don't know that a bitcoind would be able to verify a transaction without access to the full inputs
ben_vulpes: while this isn't *strictly* necessary, it's how things work now.
ben_vulpes: creating a raw transaction requires having the previous transaction in hand in full at runtime, so as to extract the pubkey from the previous transaction
ben_vulpes: far easier for the people working on it at the time to make some silly assumptions about what txns a user would want to sign, and then keep those txns on hand
ben_vulpes: i'm starting to see some of the rationale behind the wallet paradigm - creating transactions for signing requires being able to retrieve arbitrary transactions from the blockchain
ben_vulpes: tx backport archaeology's an interesting thing
ben_vulpes: anyways
ben_vulpes: probably want to decouple bot from funding actions
ben_vulpes: i don't really know how the transmission of btc is supposed to work for the thing
