* [bitcoin-dev] BIP70 is dead.

It was too complex, had too many features, and when people discuss it, they do not even agree on what the main feature was. Nevertheless, there is ONE feature of BIP70 that I find useful: the fact that payment requests were signed. I am making this post to discuss this. When I send bitcoins to an exchange, I would like to receive a signed request. I want to have a proof that the exchange asked me to send coins to that address, in case it has been hijacked by some intern working there. If that feature was implemented by an exchange, it would guide my decision to use that exchange over its competitors. I do not think that a single exchange ever implemented that, but I guess this is because BIP70 is a terrible standard. LN payment requests are signed, do not require SSL, do not require interactivity, and therefore exchanges use them. Can't we achieve the same for on-chain payments? Is anyone working on that? I would be more than happy to remove BIP70 support from Electrum, if there was another standard for signed requests.

Thomas Voegtlin @ 2021-02-19 10:33 ` Charles Hill 2021-02-19 13:34 ` Andrew Kozlik 0 siblings, 1 reply; 5+ messages in thread From: Charles Hill @ 2021-02-19 10:33 UTC (permalink / raw) To: bitcoin-dev Hi, Thomas, I developed a URL signing scheme for use with LNURL as a method for authorizing payments on behalf of offline devices /applications. It's not specifically off-chain or on-chain related, but could be repurposed. The gist of the scheme is as follows: Before any signing is done: 0) Generate an API key (ID/reference, secret, encoding) to be shared between a server and an offline device or application. To generate a signature: 1) Generate a random nonce (unique per API key) 2) Build a query string with the `id`, `nonce`, `tag`, "Server parameters" (see [Subprotocols](#subprotocols) above), and any custom parameters. The `id` parameter should be equal to the API key's ID. Example: `id=b6cb8e81e3&nonce=d585674cf991dbbab42b&tag=withdrawRequest&minWithdrawable=5000&maxWithdrawable=7000&defaultDescription=example&custom1=CUSTOM1_PARAM_VALUE&custom2=CUSTOM2_PARAM_VALUE`. Note that both the keys and values for query parameters should be URL encoded. The following characters should be __unescaped__: `A-Z a-z 0-9 - _ . ! ~ * ' ( )`. See [encodeURIComponent](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/encodeURIComponent#description) for more details. 3) Sort the query parameters by key (alphabetically). This is referred to as the "payload". Example: `custom1=CUSTOM1_PARAM_VALUE&custom2=CUSTOM2_PARAM_VALUE&defaultDescription=example&id=b6cb8e81e3&maxWithdrawable=7000&minWithdrawable=5000&nonce=d585674cf991dbbab42b&tag=withdrawRequest` 4) Sign the payload (the sorted query string) using the API key secret. Signatures are generated using HMAC-SHA256, where the API key secret is the key. 5) Append the signature to the payload as follows: `custom1=CUSTOM1_PARAM_VALUE&custom2=CUSTOM2_PARAM_VALUE&defaultDescription=example&id=b6cb8e81e3&maxWithdrawable=7000&minWithdrawable=5000&nonce=d585674cf991dbbab42b&tag=withdrawRequest&signature=HMAC_SHA256_SIGNATURE`. You can find more details here: https://github.com/chill117/lnurl-node#how-to-implement-url-signing-scheme I would change a few things with this scheme to fit better with the use-case you describe. For example: * Remove the "tag" and LNURL-specific parameters * Instead of HMAC-SHA256 with a shared secret, it could use pub/priv key signing instead. The lnurl-auth subprotocol has an interesting approach to protecting user privacy while allowing verification of signatures.

In some respects it's similar to BIP-70. The main differences are: 1. There is no reliance on X.509, since that seems to have been the main reason for BIP-70's downfall. The signature is mandatory, since for us the main feature is protection against a man-in-the-middle attack. So in this sense it's more similar to BOLT11. 2. It can be used to solve a similar problem with coin exchange. When you are sending BTC to a trusted exchange service and expecting another cryptocurrency in return, say LTC, you want to be sure that you not only have the correct BTC address, but also that the exchange service has your correct LTC address. 3. It uses an optional nonce for replay protection. The two interesting parts in [1] are probably the `TxAckPaymentRequest` protobuf message [2] and the signature verification [3]. The protobuf message is only for communication between Trezor and the host software running on the user's computer. It's not intended for interchange between wallets. We haven't defined the interchange format yet. I intend to create a SLIP documenting all this.

In addition to signing the actual payment request, a nice addition to a new payment protocol is an assurance that the receiving address can in fact spend later on. Many users send "test" transactions to a wallet address before sending their intended full amount. If the protocol includes a response containing a signature using BIP322, there is better assurance for the sender. Outside of the merchant context, a sender can use the protocol to have peace of mind when sending between their own wallets. This should likely be an optional parameter given cold storage setups cannot return a signature quickly. - Philip On Sun, Feb 21, 2021 at 5:26 AM Eoin McQuinn via bitcoin-dev < bitcoin-dev@lists.linuxfoundation.org> wrote: > What is a 'pull request'? > > On Fri, Feb 19, 2021 at 1:49 PM Andrew Kozlik via bitcoin-dev < > bitcoin-dev@lists.linuxfoundation.org> wrote: > >> Hi Thomas, >> >> I am working on an experimental implementation [1] of a new payment >> request format in Trezor T.
