Recently I am going to use bitcoin core to set up a custom signet on my docker. I have read some implementations on wiki, but I had some problems when starting up a custom signet. One of the problem is that the mining time I set is not the exactly m...

Your question boils down to why privacy is important if you aren't doing anything wrong (not-"legit"). I'll only answer in the scope of Bitcoin, but there's a more principled answer to the broader question.
First, the Bitcoin protocol allows any tra...

I think the boundary between libsecp256k1 and Bitcoin Core is pretty clear: everything that involves operations on private or public keys is in libsecp256k1.
Of course, in theory, anything can be anywhere, but I don't think there is much leeway here...

The Bitcoin protocol follows a Unspent Transaction Output system to track the existence and state of all Bitcoin in the system. These are known as UTXOs.
All transactions that transfer Bitcoin do so by consuming one or more UTXOs, and create one or...

All transaction fees go to the miner that published the block in which the transaction got confirmed. If the miner is a mining pool, they tend to have some distribution mechanism to pay out to the pool contributors.
Full nodes do not get paid. Users...

I've been working through the static test vectors provided by bitcoin core to implement an interpreter.
Some surprising behavior I found was that in the case of OP_CHECKSIGADD, if an invalid signature is found, the interpreter fails execution rather...

In the network nodes below as shown in picture:
Let's say A is trying to double spend by sending bitcoins to B,C (A->B) and (A->C) and let's say A tried to relay (A->B) transaction to honest Node - 8 and at this point let's assume that cur...

I'm going to offer a frame challenge. Your scenario makes no sense to me, because you seem to have a wrong perception of how the blockchain works and is propagated on the network.
First problem: at 6:02 Node-5 has already heard about transaction A-&...

It's not accepted. In a block, every transaction has to be valid by itself, but the whole block has to be valid as well. If anything is wrong about the block, it's simply invalid—there is no "partially right".
Let's say a miner creates such a block...

I assume you're referring to the C implementation of secp256k1 arithmetic, perhaps specfically this pull request? If not, comment and I'll revise my answer.
Why do they write an int128 type in secp256k1, when there's already arbitrary length ration...

Most of the private to public key implementations I've come across do not make use of the equation y^2=x^3+7 (the weierstrass equation defining SECp256k1).
