Expand description

Check if a transaction has any internal spend conflicts.

An internal spend conflict happens if the transaction spends a UTXO more than once or if it reveals a nullifier more than once.

Consensus rules:

“each output of a particular transaction can only be used as an input once in the block chain. Any subsequent reference is a forbidden double spend- an attempt to spend the same satoshis twice.”

A nullifier MUST NOT repeat either within a transaction, or across transactions in a valid blockchain . Sprout and Sapling and Orchard nulliers are considered disjoint, even if they have the same bit pattern.
