DIY MULTISIGNATURE WALLETS FOR SELF CUSTODY

There's been a bit of chatter around DIY multisignature wallets using hardware wallets from different vendors. As you dip your toes into it, here are some questions you might want to ask yourself.👇

1. What do I need to back up? What exactly am I backing up here?

2. What do I do if I lose one of the hardware devices?

3. What do I do if one hardware device is compromised?

4. What do I do if a hardware device updates to a new firmware that is no longer compatible with the multisignature software tool I'm using?

5. What do I do if the multisignature software tool I'm using is no longer compatible with a hardware device I'm using?

6. How often do I check my hardware devices to see if they're still functioning?

7. How often do I update the firmware to my hardware devices? Will this break anything? Have I tested post firmware update?

8. Where do I physically store my hardware devices?

9. Where do I store the seeds to the hardware devices?

10. Have I tested recovering my multisignature wallet?

11. Have I tested recovering my multisignature wallet in an alternative software to the multisignature tool I'm currently using? Do I get the same result?

12. Have I tested creating and signing a transaction from my multisignature wallet using all possible combinations?

13. If I need to restore my multisignature wallet, does the order of the devices matter in the software tool I'm using? Have I tested this?

14. Device specific considerations - Would you be comfortable with keeping (for eg) a Trezor One in a location that others have access to?

15. Have I thought about this setup from an inheritance perspective in the event something unforeseen were to happen to me?

Side note: some examples of multisignature wallet software tools include electrum, caravan, specter, sparrow and lily.

Whilst multisignature wallets add considerable security to your Bitcoin, DIY options right now present opportunities to shoot yourself in the foot if you're not careful. Some of the questions are deeply personal.

It takes time and effort to understand the complexities involved.

Freedom doesn't come for free.

So sick of the one I have now.

We are studying this.

If we do, it will follow same model as bitkey and mining hardware. nostr:note146d8pnasc9adnwfdgapdx29vl47urtduy39pd2gvwyytk2gefm3qpw8kfj

Weekend project for Android Devs.

I will give 1M sats to 3 PRs (1M each) that significantly increase the rendering+navigation performance of #Amethyst without cutting features.

For every 1M sats donated to this post, another PR will be accepted.

Let the weekend begin.

'Following' feed on Iris completely borked for anyone else?

Holy shit... I apparently have "libertarian" Facebook "friends" who have been taking their kids to drag queen story hour & feel the need to make posts about the merits of doing so.

Wtf is wrong with people? Why would anyone think, "Sexually confused, provocatively dressed, adult reading to my kid, that sounds like a great time!" That seems on par with taking your kids to hang out with Joe Biden or Michael Jackson.

Tap water boiled in the kettle and poured onto some freeze dried instant grounds. If you can't handle that then you're NGMI in the apocalypse... 🤣

once I get a little more organized I think I’ll make some how to build on Nostr videos

the protocol is simple enough where it can easily go hand in hand with learning to do some basic coding

That’s not what’s in the play store right now
