Title: Can I spend a sub set of the outputs of a tx with a presigned lock_time tx? Post by: No_2 on April 30, 2014, 02:47:33 PM Can I sped a sub set of the outputs of an existing transaction with a presigned lock_time transaction that is valid for that transaction at a future time, but some of the outputs have already been spent.
To give an example: Party A and Party B agree to lock up some funds as a deposit – Party A creates the deposit transaction and spends 6 bitcoins to a transaction that has outputs of 1BTC, 2BTC and 3BTC and broadcasts this to the network. This deposit transaction is then mined into a block. At the same time Party A sends Party B a signed lock_time transaction valid to redeem all three outputs from the 6BTC deposit transaction they just made. The lock_time transaction is valid at 100 blocks in the future, so if A and B never communicate again B can claim all three outputs at 100 blocks in the future. However before Party B can collect his bitcoins, Party A then spends 2BTC output from the deposit transaction to another transaction. Is Party B then still able to claim the remaining funds in that transaction? I.e. is each input on the lock_time transaction he holds singed separately or signed across all the inputs by Party A? Is there any way Party B can separate these out to generate a new lock_time transaction and get the funds? Please let me know if I’ve got the above correct or misunderstood anything.
