Overview

The Special Transactions framework established by DIP2 enabled the implementation of new on-chain features and consensus mechanisms. These transactions provide the flexibility to expand beyond the financial uses of classical transactions. DIP2 transactions modified classical transactions by:

1. Splitting the 32 bit version field into two 16 bit fields (version and type)
2. Adding support for a generic extra payload following the lock_time field. The maximum allowed size for a transaction version 3 extra payload is 10000 bytes (MAX_TX_EXTRA_PAYLOAD).

Classical (financial) transactions have a type of 0 while special transactions have a type defined in the DIP describing them. A list of current special transaction types is maintained in the DIP repository.

ProRegTx

Added in protocol version 70213 of Dash Core as described by DIP3

The masternode Registration (ProRegTx) special transaction is used to join the masternode list by proving ownership of the 1000 DASH necessary to create a masternode.

A ProRegTx is created and sent using the protx RPC. The ProRegTx must either include an output with 1000 DASH (protx register) or refer to an existing unspent output holding 1000 DASH (protx fund_register). If the 1000 DASH is an output of the ProRegTx, the collateralOutpoint hash field should be null.

The special transaction type is 1 and the extra payload consists of the following data:

Bytes	Name	Data type	Description
2	version	uint_16	Provider transaction version number. Currently set to 1. Updated to 2 after Dash Core 19.0.0 hard fork.
2	type	uint_16	Masternode type. Default set to 0.
2	mode	uint_16	Masternode mode. Default set to 0.
36	collateralOutpoint	COutpoint	The collateral outpoint. Note: The hash will be null if the collateral is part of this transaction, otherwise it will reference an existing collateral.
16	ipAddress	byte[]	IPv6 address in network byte order. Only IPv4 mapped addresses are allowed (to be extended in the future)
2	port	uint_16	Port (network byte order)
20	KeyIdOwner	CKeyID	The public key hash used for owner related signing (ProTx updates, governance voting)
48	PubKeyOperator	CBLSPublicKey	The BLS public key used for operational related signing (network messages, ProTx updates). Note: serialization varies based on version: - Version 1 - legacy BLS scheme - Version 2 - basic BLS scheme
20	KeyIdVoting	CKeyID	The public key hash used for voting.
2	operatorReward	uint_16	A value from 0 to 10000.
1-9	scriptPayoutSize	compactSize uint	Size of the Payee Script.
Variable	scriptPayout	Script	Payee script (p2pkh/p2sh)
32	inputsHash	uint256	Hash of all the outpoints of the transaction inputs
0 or 20	platformNodeID	byte[]	Added by ProRegTx version 2 in Dash Core 19.0.0 Dash Platform P2P node ID, derived from P2P public key. Only present for masternode type 1.
0 or 2	platformP2PPort	uint_16	Added by ProRegTx version 2 in Dash Core 19.0.0 TCP port of Dash Platform peer-to-peer communication between nodes (network byte order). Only present for masternode type 1.
0 or 2	platformHTTPPort	uint_16	Added by ProRegTx version 2 in Dash Core 19.0.0 TCP port of Platform HTTP/API interface (network byte order). Only present for masternode type 1.
1-9	payloadSigSize	compactSize uint	Size of the Signature
Variable	payloadSig	vector	Signature of the hash of the ProTx fields. Signed with the key corresponding to the collateral outpoint in case the collateral is not part of the ProRegTx itself, empty otherwise.

The following annotated hexdump shows a ProRegTx transaction referencing an existing collateral. (Parts of the classical transaction section have been omitted.)

ProUpServTx

Added in protocol version 70213 of Dash Core as described by DIP3

The masternode Provider Update Service (ProUpServTx) special transaction is used to update the IP Address and port of a masternode. If a non-zero operatorReward was set in the initial ProRegTx, the operator may also set the scriptOperatorPayout field in the ProUpServTx.

A ProUpServTx is only valid for masternodes in the registered masternodes subset. When processed, it updates the metadata of the masternode entry and revives the masternode if it was previously marked as PoSe-banned.

A ProUpServTx is created and sent using the protx update_service RPC.

The special transaction type used for ProUpServTx Transactions is 2 and the extra payload consists of the following data:

Bytes	Name	Data type	Description
2	version	uint_16	ProUpServTx version number. Currently set to 1. Updated to 2 after Dash Core 19.0.0 hard fork.
2	type	uint_16	Added by ProUpServTx version 2 in Dash Core 19.0.0 Masternode type
32	proTXHash	uint256	The hash of the initial ProRegTx
16	ipAddress	byte[]	IPv6 address in network byte order. Only IPv4 mapped addresses are allowed (to be extended in the future)
2	port	uint_16	Port (network byte order)
1-9	scriptOperator PayoutSize	compactSize uint	Size of the Operator Payee Script.
Variable	scriptOperator Payout	Script	Operator Payee script (p2pkh/p2sh)
32	inputsHash	uint256	Hash of all the outpoints of the transaction inputs
0 or 20	platformNodeID	byte[]	Added by ProUpServTx version 2 in Dash Core 19.0.0 Dash Platform P2P node ID, derived from P2P public key. Only present for masternode type 1.
0 or 2	platformP2PPort	uint_16	Added by ProUpServTx version 2 in Dash Core 19.0.0 TCP port of Dash Platform peer-to-peer communication between nodes (network byte order). Only present for masternode type 1.
0 or 2	platformHTTPPort	uint_16	Added by ProUpServTx version 2 in Dash Core 19.0.0 TCP port of Platform HTTP/API interface (network byte order). Only present for masternode type 1.
1-9	payloadSigSize	compactSize uint	Size of the Signature Note: not present in BLS implementation
96	payloadSig	vector	BLS Signature of the hash of the ProUpServTx fields. Signed by the Operator. Note: serialization varies based on version: - Version 1 - legacy BLS scheme - Version 2 - basic BLS scheme

ProUpRegTx

Added in protocol version 70213 of Dash Core as described by DIP3

The masternode Provider Update Registrar (ProUpRegTx) special transaction is used by a masternode owner to update masternode metadata (e.g. operator/voting key details or the payout script).

A ProUpRegTx is created and sent using the protx update_registrar RPC.

The special transaction type is 3 and the extra payload consists of the following data:

Bytes	Name	Data type	Description
2	version	uint_16	Provider update registrar transaction version number. Currently set to 1. Updated to 2 after Dash Core 19.0.0 hard fork.
32	proTXHash	uint256	The hash of the initial ProRegTx
2	mode	uint_16	Masternode mode. Default set to 0.
48	PubKeyOperator	CBLSPublicKey	The BLS public key used for operational related signing (network messages, ProTx updates). Note: serialization varies based on version: - Version 1 - legacy BLS scheme - Version 2 - basic BLS scheme
20	KeyIdVoting	CKeyID	The public key hash used for voting.
1-9	scriptPayoutSize	compactSize uint	Size of the Payee Script.
Variable	scriptPayout	Script	Payee script (p2pkh/p2sh)
32	inputsHash	uint256	Hash of all the outpoints of the transaction inputs
1-9	payloadSigSize	compactSize uint	Size of the Signature
Variable	payloadSig	vector	Signature of the hash of the ProTx fields. Signed with the key corresponding to the collateral outpoint in case the collateral is not part of the ProRegTx itself, empty otherwise.

The following annotated hexdump shows a ProUpRegTx transaction referencing an
existing collateral. (Parts of the classical transaction section have been omitted.)

ProUpRevTx

Added in protocol version 70213 of Dash Core as described by DIP3

The masternode Operator Revocation (ProUpRevTx) special transaction allows an operator to revoke their key in case of compromise or if they wish to terminate service. If a masternode's operator key is revoked, the masternode becomes ineligible for payment until the owner provides a new operator key (via a ProUpRegTx).

A ProUpRevTx is created and sent using the protx revoke RPC.

The special transaction type used for ProUpServTx Transactions is 4 and the extra payload consists of the following data:

Bytes	Name	Data type	Description
2	version	uint_16	ProUpRevTx version number. Currently set to 1. Updated to 2 after Dash Core 19.0.0 hard fork.
32	proTXHash	uint256	The hash of the initial ProRegTx
2	reason	uint_16	The reason for revoking the key. 0 - Not specified 1 - Termination of Service 2 - Compromised Key 3 - Change of key

CbTx

Added in protocol version 70213 of Dash Core as described by DIP4

The Coinbase (CbTx) special transaction adds information to the block coinbase transaction that enables verification of the deterministic masternode list without the full chain (e.g. from SPV clients). This allows light-clients to properly verify InstantSend transactions and support additional deterministic masternode list functionality in the future.

The special transaction type used for CbTx Transactions is 5 and the extra payload consists of the following data:

Bytes	Name	Data type	Description
2	version	uint_16	CbTx version number. Currently set to 2.
4	height	uint32_t	Height of the block
32	merkleRootMNList	uint256	Merkle root of the masternode list
32	merkleRootQuorums	uint256	Added by CbTx version 2 in v0.14.0 Merkle root of currently active LLMQs

Version History

CbTx Version	First Supported Protocol Version	Dash Core Version	Notes
1	70213	0.13.0	Enabled by activation of DIP3
2	70214	0.14.0	Enabled by activation of DIP8

The following annotated hexdump shows a CbTx transaction.

QcTx

Added in protocol version 70213 of Dash Core as described by DIP6

🚧

Note

This special transaction has no inputs and no outputs and thus also pays no fee.

The Quorum Commitment (QcTx) special transaction adds the best final commitment from a Long-Living Masternode Quorum (LLMQ) Distributed Key Generation (DKG) session to the chain.

Since this special transaction pays no fees, it is mandatory by consensus rules to ensure that miners include it. Exactly one quorum commitment transaction MUST be included in every block while in the mining phase of the LLMQ process until a valid commitment is present in a block.

If a DKG failed or a miner did not receive a final commitment in-time, a null commitment has to be included in the special transaction payload. A null commitment must have the signers and validMembers bitsets set to the quorumSize and all bits set to zero. All other fields must be set to the null representation of the field’s types.

The special transaction type used for Quorum Commitment Transactions is 6 and the extra payload consists of the following data:

Bytes	Name	Data type	Description
2	version	uint_16	Quorum Commitment version number. Currently set to 1. Will change to 2 after Dash Core v18.0 hard fork.
4	height	uint32_t	Height of the block
Variable	commitment	qfcommit	The payload of the qfcommit message

The following annotated hexdump shows a QcTx transaction.

MnHfTx

Added in protocol version 70222 of Dash Core as described by DIP23

🚧

Note

This special transaction has no inputs and no outputs and thus also pays no fee

The Masternode Hard Fork Signal (MnHfTx) special transaction adds the masternode hard fork signal produced by an LLMQ_400_85 quorum to the chain. Since this special transaction pays no fees, it is mandatory by consensus rules to ensure that miners include it. This can be done by any miner in any block, but it should only be included once.

📘

Partial implementation in Dash Core 18.0

Dash Core 18.0 only added the special transaction to prepare for the full implementation of DIP23 in a future release. The mnhfsignal P2P message referenced below is not included in Dash Core 18.0.

The special transaction type used for Quorum Commitment Transactions is 7 and the extra payload consists of the following data:

Bytes	Name	Data type	Description
2	version	uint_16	Quorum Commitment version number. Currently set to 1.
Variable	commitment	mnhfsignal	The payload of the mnhfsignal message (defined in DIP23 but not yet implemented)

The following annotated hexdump shows a MnHfTx transaction.
