==Abstract==

When a Bitcoin transaction contains inputs that reference previous transaction outputs sent to different Bitcoin addresses, personally identifiable information of the user will leak into the blockchain in an uncontrolled manner. While undesirable, these transactions are frequently unavoidable due the natural fragmentation of wallet balances over time.
When a Bitcoin transaction contains inputs that reference previous transaction outputs sent to different Bitcoin addresses, personally identifiable information of the user will leak into the blockchain in an uncontrolled manner. While undesirable, these transactions are frequently unavoidable due to the natural fragmentation of wallet balances over time.

This document proposes a set of best practice guidelines which minimize the uncontrolled disclosure of personally identifiable information by defining standard forms for transactions containing heterogenous input scripts.

==Definitions==

* '''Heterogenous input script transaction (HIT)''': A transaction containing multiple inputs where the scripts of the previous transaction outputs being consumed are not identical (e.g. a transaction spending outputs which were sent to more than one Bitcoin address)
* '''Unavoidable heterogenous input script transaction''': An HIT created as a result of a user’s desire to create a new output with a value larger than the value of his wallet's largest existing unspent output
* '''Intentional heterogenous input script transaction''': An HIT created as part of a user protection protocol for reducing uncontrolled disclosure of personally-identifying information (PII)
* '''Unavoidable heterogenous input script transaction''': A HIT created as a result of a user’s desire to create a new output with a value larger than the value of his wallet's largest existing unspent output
* '''Intentional heterogenous input script transaction''': A HIT created as part of a user protection protocol for reducing uncontrolled disclosure of personally-identifying information (PII)

Throughout this procedure, when input scripts are evaluated for uniqueness, "input script" should be interpreted to mean, "the script of the previous output referenced by an input to a transaction".

===Rules===

An HIT is Standard form if it adheres to all of the following rules:
A HIT is Standard form if it adheres to all of the following rules:

# The number of unique output scripts must be equal to the number of unique inputs scripts (irrespective of the number of inputs and outputs).
# All output scripts must be unique.
