Multisig Wallet

What is a multi-signature wallet and what are the two multisig wallet types?

A multisignature wallet allows users to collaboratively control their assets. A multisig wallet has a set number of signatories that must come to a consensus in order for transactions to be authorized.

For multisig accounts information and operations exchange Nova Spektr uses Spektr Matrix Protocol.

Nova Spektr supports all Polkadot ecosystem networks that have the multisig pallet in their runtime. Two multisig wallet types are supported: regular and flexible multisig.
