   roconnor-blockstream commented at 10:05 pm on May 30, 2025: contributor

   Rebase of #27351 onto #29136.

   WIP

   This PR introduces the ability to import BIP 93/codex32 master seeds with the addhdkey command. It currently expects seeds to be provided in either as a single seed or as a list of shares which can be assembled via Shamir Secret Sharing.

2. descriptor: Add unused(KEY) descriptor

   unused() descriptors do not have scriptPubKeys. Instead, the wallet uses
   them to store keys without having any scripts to watch for.

   🚧 At least one of the CI tasks failed. Task previous releases, depends DEBUG: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/runs/43216931922 LLM reason (✨ experimental): The CI failure is due to a compilation error caused by an invalid use of dynamic_cast on a non-pointer type.

   Try to run the tests locally, according to the documentation. However, a CI failure may still happen due to a number of reasons, for example:

   • Possibly due to a silent merge conflict (the changes in this pull request being incompatible with the current code in the target branch). If so, make sure to rebase on the latest commit of the target branch.

   • A sanitizer issue, which can only be found by compiling with the sanitizer and running the affected test.

   • An intermittent issue.

   Leave a comment here, if you need help tracking down a confusing failure.

    Concept ACK-ish

    This is certainly better than the previous approach.

14. bech32: expose the character conversion functionality

    In the next commit we will implement a new checksum, codex32, which uses
    the same encoding and HRP rules as bech32 and bech32m, but has a
    substantially different checksum verification procedure. To minimize
    duplicated code, we expose the character conversion in a new
    bech32::internals module.
