CTV and Vault Applications

Check template verify (CTV) allows parameters to be added to how Bitcoin can be spent by adding a script to the output, making the UTXO itself only spendable when certain conditions are met. CTV is seen as safe and can enhance on-chain security. One key application is using CTV for vaults to create automated cold card on-chain solutions, improving on-chain safety by a significant margin.
