Major BIP 360 Update

The reason I chose Pay to Tapscript Hash was because it rhymes with Pay to Script Hash and Pay to Witness Script Hash.

I think it compares well in lists, too:

  • P2SH
  • P2WSH
  • P2TR
  • P2TSH

I also ran it by Stephen Roose in a past thread here on Delving and he gave me the thumbs up on it.

Also, MAST is confusing because Merkelized Alternative Script Trees are different than prior MAST proposals, and the retronym makes it more difficult to disambiguate.

As for the suggestions, P2STMR, P2TTR, and P2MAST are not superior acronyms in my opinion, at least, from an aesthetic sense… And while naming is subjective and difficult and imperfect, I think P2TSH works well in the context of what’s currently in Bitcoin now.

Thank you for the feedback so far.
