What is Segregated Witness

Segregated Witness (Segwit) was first proposed by Bitcoin core developer Pieter Wuille in 2015. It is currently a better solution for Bitcoin to cope with capacity expansion, which is to isolate the signature information in the block to achieve disguised expansion, and the transaction processing speed can reach 2M.

Benefits of Segregated Witness:

  1. Better security

  2. Can increase block capacity

  3. Check transactions faster
