P2WSH Multisig and Timelock question

[Jason Brendon]

Sparrow Wallet can do that. I think maybe Bitcoin Core can do that now too, because Ordinals claim to use that feature. And it's always possible to construct Taproot transactions with spend paths by hand if you are sufficiently masochist  

I tried. Sparrow cannot spend from a taproot address. it can only create taproot addresses.

Sorry to hijack but can anyone help with spending a transaction from a time lock address???

I accidentally made the time lock 7140000 instead of 714000 and that means I have to wait 120 years to spend the coins. Please can anyone help?

If you created the script correctly then there is no way to spend these coins and nobody can help. The Bitcoin protocol is solid and will not allow these coins to move until block #7140000
Otherwise the only chance you have is if you made a mistake (wrong locktime value, using a branch that could be skipped, etc.) in which case you can post your full redeem script (like the ones you see in this topic) containing the OP codes, the locktime value and your public key here for people to see if there is any chance.

The maximum timelock allowed in Bitcoin is 0xffff, about 455 days. So you can't make a timelock of 120 years.

OP_CLTV is different from OP_CSV (absolute vs relative). It allows for the locking of Bitcoin to be evaluated either by unix time or block height, the latter for which is up to >9000 years while the former is until 2106.

This is almost certainly the same address which another used claimed to have created in this thread:

It seems that a scammer might be selling the private key to this timelocked address to multiple users who then realize they are unable to claim the coins and come here looking for help.

You are right, forgot about the absolute timelock value.
