Since Bitcoin Core v0.17, there is support for Output Descriptors. This is a
4+
simple language which can be used to describe collections of output scripts.
5+
Supporting RPCs are:
6+
- `scantxoutset` takes as input descriptors to scan for, and also reports
7+
specialized descriptors for the matching UTXOs.
8+
- `getdescriptorinfo` analyzes a descriptor, and reports a canonicalized version
9+
with checksum added.
10+
- `deriveaddresses` takes as input a descriptor and computes the corresponding
11+
addresses.
12+
- `listunspent` outputs a specialized descriptor for the reported unspent outputs.
13+
14+
This document describes the language. For the specifics on usage, see the RPC
15+
documentation for the functions mentioned above.
