Like every other blockchain network, Bitcoin also gets updated every once in a while, thanks to the Bitcoin core developers. These updates, often referred to as soft forks, introduce new features and benefits to the Bitcoin network. Most recent upgrade is dubbed Taproot.
πThe Taproot upgrade is a compilation of three Bitcoin Improvement Proposals (BIPs), which are design documents for the introduction of features and information to Bitcoin.
π The three BIPs are Schnorr Signatures (BIP 340), Taproot (BIP 341), and Tapscript (BIP 342). These three upgrades are known as the Taproot upgrades, and are collectively termed as BIP Taproot. The upgrade brings more efficient, flexible, and private ways of transferring Bitcoin.
1οΈβ£ BIP 340
This protocol allows for the use of Schnorr signatures in the Bitcoin network. In cryptography, Schnorr signatures are digital signatures produced by the Schnorr signature algorithm developed by Claus Schnorr.
2οΈβ£ BIP 341
In simple terms the protocol basically defines how the Bitcoinβs protocol will integrate Schnorr signatures. Specifically, the Bitcoin Script must be updated so it also evaluates Schnorr signatures. It also integrates Merkelized Alternative Script Trees (MAST)
3οΈβ£ BIP 342
To actually implement P2TR, BIP 342 adds and updates several opcodes, which are portions of machine language instruction that specifies the operation to be performed. These new scripts help in verifying Taproot spends and Schnorr signatures known as Tapscripts.
π How does this upgrade benefit #Bitcoin? π€
The #Taproot upgrade benefits both bitcoin users who adopt taproot and those who donβt. In short, spending Taproot outputs are significantly cheaper. The biggest boost comes to Privacy.
π When is the #Taproot upgrade coming? π§
Taproot remains a proposed upgrade, but has received a lot of support from the community. The Schnorr, Taproot, and Tapscript upgrades were given BIP 340, 341, and 342 in January of 2020, and have been in development since.
