🗒️ Summary of this message: Jan suggests implementing an interface to mark certain addresses as "trusted" and an RPC call to request incoming transactions from trusted sources. He also proposes tracking unconfirmed funds from specific sources.

That would be fine as well. Although I would prefer if one could
query for a specific transaction id, whether it comes from a trusted
source and also from which trusted source, as you might want to
keep track of the amount of unconfirmed funds you are currently
accepting from a specific source (or the Bitcoin daemon could
keep track of that as well, either way is fine).

This sounds a little too involved though, for my level of familiarity
with the Bitcoin source code and C++, to implement myself.

Jan
