The response in <<example_2-2>> shows one unspent output (one that has
not been redeemed yet) under the ownership of Alice's address
+1Cdid9KFAaatwczBwBttQcwXYCpvK8h7FK+. The response includes the
reference to the transaction in which this unspent output is contained
(the payment from Joe) and its value in satoshis, at 10 million,
equivalent to 0.10 bitcoin. With this information, Alice's wallet

The response includes the reference to the transaction in which this
UTXO is contained (the payment from Joe), the output index
number, its value in satoshis, and the script derived from Alice's
address. With this information, Alice's wallet
application can construct a transaction to transfer that value to new
owner addresses.

As you can see, Alice's wallet contains enough bitcoin in a single
unspent output to pay for the podcast. Had this not been the case,
Alice's wallet application might have to "rummage" through a pile of
smaller unspent outputs, like picking coins from a purse until it could
In this case, this single
UTXO is sufficient to pay for the podcast. Had this not been the case,
Alice's wallet application might have to combine several
smaller UTXOs, like picking coins from a purse until it could
find enough to pay for the podcast. In both cases, there might be a need
to get some change back, which we will see in the next section, as the
wallet application creates the transaction outputs (payments).
