187 sats \ 4 replies \ @suidoc OP 28 Oct 2022 freebie \ parent \ on: The feeling of being self-sovereign bitcoin
I did not think about the privacy part and I believe that to be a very real concern. We see from time to time major companies having their data compromised and essentially if your single key gets in the hand of other people, they would be able to track all of your transactions - and not just the ones you make moving forward but every single transaction from the past too. Thank you for that point!
The transaction to the multisig costed me 158 sats while sending from my multisig costed me 368 sats, so it is quite a jump in fees (x2.3 increase). These may vary as I get more UTXOs unto the wallet. But I think the benefits are worth the extra costs as the base costs is quite low as long as you don't send small amounts at a time.
368 sats? Are you sure? Maybe you meant 3680 sats?
Are you handling the saving / sharing of the metadata (signing data) yourself, or does your multi-sig app handle it for you?
As I understand, you need to have the details of ALL the signators to enable each signature

I do indeed mean 368 sats - have you experienced higher costs?
Right now I am in possession of all 3 keys of my 2 of 3 multisig, so I am signing the transaction myself. I ran a similar transaction on testnet before setting up on mainnet. Here the fees are 200 sats.

With a 2 of 3 multisig wallet you would only need 2 of the 3 keys to succesfully sign a transaction.

Wow! On-chain transactions are super cheap right now!

Well it depends on how much you want to pay pr. byte. Since I am moving sats between savings, I would never pay more than 1sat/byte.
