Getting the ECDSA Z Value from a Bitcoin Single Input Transaction

in #bitcoin6 years ago


In this video I demonstrate getting the ECDSA Z value from a bitcoin transaction with only one input. I also show the R and S values.
The ECDSA R, S and Z values are used throughout the many layers of bitcoin to validate a transaction, The Z value is also sometimes referred to as the signed message. Transactions that don't contain valid inputs can be safely ignored, and the Z value is one of the properties that is used to check validity.
This video shows me dissecting a very basic transaction with only 1 input and 1 output.
