Do we need to grant permissions to burn address like receive?

Question

Hi Multichain Team,

In the latest version of multichain - alpha 22, I had to grant explicit receive permission to the burn address generated. This was not the case in version 20.

If I was not doing that, I was receiving "One of the outputs doesn't have receive permission" for my transaction.

Is this intended behavior, just wanted to confirm?

Thanks.

Granting receive permission to the burnaddress has always been required, for your own safety! I'm not sure why you didn't see this in an earlier alpha, but it's not something we changed.
