Does the bare minimum to introduce Taproot wallet support with CT; just adds a CPubKey blinding_pubkey to the taproot destination variant and updates some visitors. In future when we define blech32 we will need to make sure we are using that encoding and using the pubkey. |

Elements Project blockchain platform
This is the integration and staging tree for the Elements blockchain platform, a collection of feature experiments and extensions to the Bitcoin protocol. This platform enables anyone to build their own businesses or networks pegged to Bitcoin as a sidechain or run as a standalone blockchain with arbitrary asset tokens.
Modes
Elements supports a few different pre-set chains for syncing. Note though some are intended for QA and debugging only:
- Liquid mode:
elementsd -chain=liquidv1(syncs with Liquid network) - Bitcoin mainnet mode:
elementsd -chain=main(not intended to be run for commerce) - Bitcoin testnet mode:
elementsd -chain=testnet3 - Bitcoin regtest mode:
elementsd -chain=regtest - Elements custom chains: Any other
-chain=argument. It has regtest-like default parameters that can be over-ridden by the user by a rich set of start-up options.
Confidential Assets
The latest feature in the Elements blockchain platform is Confidential Assets, the ability to issue multiple assets on a blockchain where asset identifiers and amounts are blinded yet auditable through the use of applied cryptography.
- Announcement of Confidential Assets
- Confidential Assets Whitepaper to be presented April 7th at Financial Cryptography 2017 in Malta
- Confidential Assets Tutorial
- Confidential Assets Demo
- Elements Code Tutorial covering blockchain configuration and how to use the main features.
Features of the Elements blockchain platform
Compared to Bitcoin itself, it adds the following features:
- Confidential Assets
- Confidential Transactions
- Federated Two-Way Peg
- Signed Blocks
- Additional opcodes
Previous elements that have been integrated into Bitcoin:
- Segregated Witness
- Relative Lock Time
Elements deferred for additional research and standardization:
Additional RPC commands and parameters:
The CI (Continuous Integration) systems make sure that every pull request is built for Windows, Linux, and macOS, and that unit/sanity tests are run automatically.
