  script : (scriptArr, options) => 'hex encoded string'
}

BTON.decode = {
  tx       : (hexString, options) => { 'Tx Object' },
  script   : (hexString, options) => [ 'Script Array' ]
}

BTON.convert = (object, options)  => { 'Tx Object' }

BTON.digest = {

Example Transaction Object

{
  version: 0,                 // Version number.
  vin: [
    {
      prevTxid  : 'abcd1234', // 32-byte UTXO transaction ID.
      prevOut   : 0,          // Index of UTXO being spent.
      scriptSig : [],         // Array of unlocking arguments.
      sequence  : 'FFFFFFFF', // Sequence modifier.
      witness : [           // Array of witness arguments.

        'argument2',
        'argument1',
        /* 'P2WSH redeem script' */

      ]
    }
  ],
  vout: [
    {
      value: 100000000,       // Output value.
      scriptPubkey: [         // Array of locking arguments.

        'opcodes (or witness version)',
        'more opcodes (or locking hash)'

      ]
    }
  ],
  locktime: 0,                // Transaction lock-time.

  /* You can also include metadata! */
  meta: {
    data: {
      /* Anything that is valid JSON can 
        go here. Simply remove the meta 
        field and re-encode the object 
        to get broadcast-able hex.
