This slide summarizes the fundamental reason why forbidding data embeddings on-chain either: - fails miserably, or - destroys Bitcoin. https://blossom.primal.net/9d5ccd3e0b3bcc7e14497316751caab68b...

Bitcoin doesn't work without entropy.
But entropy implies information content.

It's from my @TABConf 8 - Oct 12-15, 2026 ATL 2024 talk "Entropy, miniscript and hardware signers", exploring what entropy means for the UX of signing devices.

Although, I think that only covers single-sig?

Easy. All transactions just go to my address.

If the UI normalizes the fact that only *signed* transactions can be broadcast, then "transaction" is fine for a PSBT.

Unpopular (?) opinion: banish the term 'PSBT' from the UI of software wallets (and hardware signers).

It's just a file format. Image-editing tools don't tell you "load JPEG/PNG/..." – it's "Load image".

'Transaction draft'? 'Unfinished transaction'? Just 'transaction'?

also PSBT doesnt mean anything from an operative point of view, in most cases users have an unsigned (so, not a partially signed) tx.

That's the plan (see the dropdown). https://bitcoincore.app/send/basic-flow/

What about descriptors?
