Re: 300 BTC Coding Contest: Distributed Exchange (MasterCoin Developer Thread)
Have we had a conversation already about allowing/disallowing based on whether output amounts are the same?
I don't think it ever came up before. So let's make a decision on it now
I think my previous arguments still stand. We need to debate whether we want to opt-in for as much valid transactions that might be interpret wrong every once in a while. Or play it safe and require some baseline requirements (same value outputs) to be met in order to reduce the risk of interpreting it wrong.
I'm of the view that we should button everything up as tight as possible so there can be no ambiguity as to how to decode a transaction. End users are going to be using our respective wallet software soon enough, I'm actually for as smaller 'net' as possible for transaction validity, but I do accept we need to honor transactions sent to date.
