Title: A new method for internal accounts with track confirmation status from balances
Post by: wladston on June 04, 2012, 04:48:16 AM
Hey guys,

I thought of a new method for implementing internal accounts. Currently I've implemented it at the application level, and I'd like to know if you find any flaws, and would like to get suggestions.

The method is described here : http://bitquestion.com/static/files/paper_accounts.pdf (http://bitquestion.com/static/files/paper_accounts.pdf)

The main difference from the current account method is that currently there is no way to track confirmation from moves between internal accounts. When some internal move is made, the balance is credited at the receiving account as confirmed.

My proposed method keeps track of the balance confirmation status across all moves.

If you like the idea, maybe I can try to port that myself within bitcoind.
