Many cryptocurrencies are plagued by the problem of users losing coins by making
a mistake with the public key they are transferring to and discovering that the
private key they thought would control the money doesn't work. Pact allows you
to construct coin transfers in a way that guarantees that someone is in
possession of the correct private key and it will work to access the coins. This
transaction does this by doing two transfers in a single transaction, one from
alice to bob for the desired amount plus a small amount extra coins for a
test transfer, and one from bob to alice transferring back the extra amount.
This is most important when you are doing transfer-create because that is when
you are defining the new account's keyset.
Signing
This transaction must be signed by both the alice and bob accounts and each
signature must have the appropriate coin.TRANSFER capability. In this example,
the public key for the account alice is
6be2f485a7af75fedb4b7f153a903f7e6000ca4aa501179c91a2450b777bd2a7 and the
public key for bob is
368820f80c324bbc7c2b0610688a7da43e39f91d118732671cd9c7500ff43cca.
