I notice that many coinbase transactions(like in block 720,815) with locktime=0x00000000 and sequence=0xFFFFFFFF, which means UTXO could be spent immediately. There seems to be no limit to coinbase's immediate use.

2Does this answer your question? What is the block maturation time?– Pieter WuilleJan 29, 2022 at 14:26

I know there is a block maturation time, i just don't understand how to implement it? when nodes verify UTXO, is there extra step to verify coinbase UTXO height ? why don't just use CLTV or CSV ?– KHJUAF403456ZS3K564WAEFJan 30, 2022 at 2:31
