It is just an inversion of 0x82, nothing special.
Well, thanks, I was too hasty this time.

I looked further on the internet and found this series of articles:
https://github.com/BlockchainCommons/Learning-Bitcoin-from-the-Command-Line/blob/master/07_1_Creating_a_Partially_Signed_Bitcoin_Transaction.md

I found the section Create a PSBT the Easy Way to be the most suitable for me. But of course I have to try it out first.

HWI is discussed in the last article. I didn't know this tool before. I think it's a good thing but at the moment I have the feeling it adds just another layer of complexity to my already existing setup. Can't I just use walletprocesspsbt on my HW wallet (Raspberry with Bitcoind 27.1)? My approach would be roughly as follows:

1. Use walletcreatefundedpsbt with empty inputs on the watch-only Wallet.
2. Transfer the output of walletcreatefundedpsbt as a QR code to my HW Wallet.
3. Use walletprocesspsbt on the HW Wallet with the transfered output of walletcreatefundedpsbt.
4. Transfer the output of walletprocesspsbt as a QR code back to the watch-only Wallet.
5. Then there: finalizepsbt and sendrawtransaction

Does that make sense? Have I understood the scheme correctly?

There was about an hour delay since he was sposse to take the stage at 3pm but think he arrived there at 4pm instead.
I would imagine at every conference or rally he has up until the November elections he will have heavy detail due to the attempt on his life and not have women who are shorter and thinner than he is. The man is 6 foot 3 inches and stocky.
So they will be having agents who are well over his height something such as 6 foot 5 inches and over 255 lbs I would assume going any further into crowds of people.
His security detail during that rally in Pennsylvania looked like something from an SNL skit somebody said and not for a potential presidential candidate or former president.
It did look like a circus if you watch what those two women agents did. One standing behind him of where the shot came from and the other couldn't even holster her firearm.
No wonder the head of the CIA was fired during that hearing two weeks ago.

Anyways, back to the subject at hand.
He did have a special guest as those at the conference were saying he was going to have and it wasn't Elon Musk.
It was senator Cynthia Lummis stipulating a Bitcoin Strategic Reserve Bill right after his speech.

This is the full video of that speech from Lummis:

If you plan to receive Bitcoin from someone else, there's chance their wallet software doesn't support sending to P2TR address.
Don't really know why the adoption is slower than the version 0 , I mean it should be more though its just a slight difference depending on the transaction...maybe that's the case then.

I would speculate the fact SegWit use Bech32, while Taproot use Bech32m contribute to slower Taproot adaption.
That is true. But I also speculated that Taproot do not exactly reduce transaction fee in single signature wallet. Segwit version 0 still remain to have the lower fee except during spending higher input like during consolidation. It is even surprising that wallets like Electrum and Bluewallet do not support it yet.

Even most bitcoin wallets are supporting segwit version 0 but many centralized platforms like exchanges are not yet supporting it. Exchanges like Bybit, HTX, Bitget, BitMart, Mexc and many other exchanges are not supporting even segwit version 0 up till now.

Politicians will always be politicians who take advantage of every possible opportunity to market themselves to the larger community. No doubt Trump is a smart leader and knows where to take advantage of to gain more points for himself. Although he is a business mogul that fits his aspirations as a politician to soar high when looking at the economic aspect. I believe he would do much better when it comes to cryptocurrency. So far, he has made his intentions publicly known and from the looks, he means what he is talking about  Bitcoin, if he does as he has said, there will be a massive adoption of cryptocurrency globally.

I think this would usher in a new all-time high and the price speculation of $100,000 would be in the pipeline waiting to overflow. This might look like a joke but I think it is a step or action on course. Let us watch how it goes.

So after the political games began late last week yearning for those bitcoiner votes, Schiff wanted to put in his two cents of what the one candidate had to say:

Peter Schiff Blasts RFK Jr’s Bitcoin Buy Plan As ‘Vote-Buying’ Strategy
https://coingape.com/peter-schiff-blasts-rfk-jrs-bitcoin-buy-plan-as-vote-buying-strategy

So some serious backlash from a gold supremacist such as Peter Schiff on any progression of bitcoin into American society.

If the transaction have the same inputs and outputs, native segwit transactions are of low fee. If the inputs are more with just one or fewer outputs, taproot transactions have lower fee. If the outputs are more and with just one or few outputs, native segwit transactions are more.

To understand about it more, read this: Pay-to-taproot (P2TR) transaction fee

Native segwit have less output vbyte while taproot has less input vbyte.

It is worth knowing that taproot is also segwit. What you referred to as segwit is referred to as segwit version 0 while taproot is referred to as segwit version 1.
Thank you for the link to the previous posts/discussion. Very good stuff to learn about.
Now I can make a better informed decision.

Crypto has changed the world and there's no doubt even world leaders like Donald Trump just mentioned its importance.

However, do you feel Bitcoin still creates excitement or are we beyond that pinnacle where it's no longer something to be so excited about?


Every bull run brings excitement, no matter what, we even hadn't hit $100k or more yet, so there are still a lot of leg room for the price to grow and so we should not rest and move forward and it that time comes then it's a different feeling, just like reaching almost $20k in 2017 and then almost $70k in 2021. So for this year's bull run, a conservative estimates of 6 digits is along the ways.

And there will be no time in Bitcoin market that we are not excited about, even in bear market, because it's the right time to invest as the price is really very low and we look forward on how big our profits is in the future. And there will always be newbies in the market, so there's always this anticipation, and imagine the joy that it can bring to them when the market hits new all time high at $100k++.

Bitcoin is something to be excited about and its adoption still continues. It is an asset of value and its value has reach politics which is normal.

"Adoption" means something entirely different today than it did a few years ago--people are buying it because line-always-goes-up or are using it as a day-trading instrument.  That word used to mean that merchants were accepting it as payment for goods & services, and I haven't heard much about that in a long time. 

That's not to say that bitcoin isn't a good investment asset or that I'm disappointed that most online merchants don't accept it.  I've always thought it was a lousy form of money. 

As to OP's question, I'd have to say that I'm less enthusiastic about bitcoin than I was maybe two years ago, but honestly I might be conflating bitcoin and bitcointalk.  The latter used to be almost addictive to me, but nowadays I can't even tell if AI programs are cranking out all of these insipid thread topics....but I digress.

If people vote for Trump, bitcoin will become more relevant in the world.

That's iffy.  As I've said, I wouldn't trust anything a politician says when they're in the process of running for election.  And when that person happens to be Donald Trump, well.  But if he does win, maybe those government alphabet agencies might become more bitcoin-friendly, who knows?  All I know is that this is going to be one hell of an election cycle; the country is probably going to end up being even more divided than it already is.  Again, I digress!

It is just an inversion of 0x82, nothing special. If you multiply 0x352b52b52b52b52b52b52b52b52b52b4e7c1db2bf914fdd54560dc7fb517156e by 0x82, you will get 0x1affffffffffffffffffffffffffffffddb0714c547ca8e64d3b2ff8d9f5b8e1dc as a result, which is equal to one, if you apply modulo n=0xfffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffebaaedce6af48a03bbfd25e8cd0364141 on that.
