Minglejingle: Scalable blockchain with non-interactive transactions

This article describes the Minglejingle (MJ) protocol: a redesign of Mimblewimble (MW) for non-interactive transactions. It preserves the security and privacy properties, supports payment proofs, non-interactive coinjoin and secure pruning of spent outputs.

1. Introduction

Blockchains are distributed ledgers that preserve the transaction history so that new network participants can, at any point in the future, verify these two security properties:

  1. Supply security: No counterfeit coins have been created.
  2. Ownership security: No coins have been moved without the authorization by the owner of the associated private keys.

SAS: Succinct Atomic Swap

Works today with [single signer ECDSA adaptor signatures][0], or with Schnorr + MuSig.
Other than the explanation below, there's also a diagram and a video.

 
Advantages:

  • Requires merely two on-chain transactions for successful completion, as opposed to four
  • Scriptless, and one of the chains doesn't need to support timelocks
  • Can be used for efficient privacy swaps, e.g. [Payswap][1]

Array iteration methods summarized

Array Iteration

https://gist.github.com/ljharb/58faf1cfcb4e6808f74aae4ef7944cff

While attempting to explain JavaScript's reduce method on arrays, conceptually, I came up with the following - hopefully it's helpful; happy to tweak it if anyone has suggestions.

Intro

JavaScript Arrays have lots of built in methods on their prototype. Some of them mutate - ie, they change the underlying array in-place. Luckily, most of them do not - they instead return an entirely distinct array. Since arrays are conceptually a contiguous list of items, it helps code clarity and maintainability a lot to be able to operate on them in a "functional" way. (I'll also insist on referring to an array as a "list" - although in some languages, List is a native data type, in JS and this post, I'm referring to the concept. Everywhere I use the word "list" you can assume I'm talking about a JS Array) This means, to perform a single operation on the list as a whole ("atomically"), and to return a new list - thus making it mu
