"wallets creates new unconfirmed transactions that spend money controlled by it's private key" and "To spend money, the owner of a paper wallet would have to copy the secret number into a software or hardware wallet." these are really what I want to know. How does this happen? What does the wallet create and what does it need for that to work in the system? what identifies a new transaction in other nodes/peers/wallets? How does another node identify an incoming message as a bitcoin transaction, rather than other net traffic? | |
