As I understand it this PR will allow `rust-miniscript` to determine the best way to spend a complex miniscript based output given what the user has (private keys, hash pre-images) and when they want their tx to be valid (time locks). I’m sure @danielabrozzoni and @afilini can explain it better but I know it’s going to make descriptor/miniscript based wallets much cooler. 😎

I’ll also be doing a #tabconf23 “builders day” table on Thursday for anyone who wants to learn about that project. Mainly will be demo’ing what it does and showing people how to setup the dev environment and run the tests. If we have time we can try hacking in some more tests or features.

Here's a link to the workshop I'm doing tomorrow 4pm at TABConf 2023 in Atlanta, GA: This workshop is based on the example-esplora CLI that @evanlinjin created, but I've simplified it and adapted it to use the Wallet API provided by the bdk crate.

Chatted with @Shawn about Neal Stephenson’s “Diamond Age” over lunch today and now I can’t get it out of my head. Overdue for a re-read. What ever happened to the nano-tech future we were promised? image
