+=== Paying fees ===

+Since the amount-checking semantics of <code>OP_CHECKCONTRACTVERIFY</code> are designed to preserve the entire input
+amount across one or more outputs, transaction fees must be paid exogenously. This can be achieved by adding an extra
+input to the transaction, by using an anchor output, or with other future mechanisms.

+The ''ignore'' amount mode is not a safe mechanism for paying endogenous fees. An output checked with this mode has no
+amount constraint, which would allow a miner to claim the entire value of that input. This mode is included for forward
+compatibility with potential future soft forks that may introduce other amount-related logic that is compatible with
+<code>OP_CHECKCONTRACTVERIFY</code>'s script checks.
