Fees on Bitcoin are via transaction which is derived via the UTXO. So if I put 5BTC as inputs, and 4.9btc as outputs, the 0.1BTC not mentioned are fees. For me to add more fees to that transaction or get the 0.1BTC back, I need to add 0.1BTC to a change address that comes back to me. That means that I’m changing the original transaction and therefore I have to resign the inputs.

Ethereum is account based, not UTXO

I have a video on this coming out on the 1sr Jan that explains that better

Probably not interested, sorry. Just text and graphics should be enough if anyone has an answer

Still not understanding. Without knowing more about how the eth version functions, I can't imagine why it would rely on being account based instead of utxo
