🚨 Observing a lot of oversimplification around multisig lately. 🚨
People confidently explaining setups they've clearly never actually configured _or_ recovered from.
If you've never done a dry-run recovery of your multisig, you haven't tested your backup. Seeds, xpubs, descriptor, derivation paths, key ordering. Add all that to your backup _and test it_ or stay single-sig.
So that's it: multisig isn't hard to understand, it's hard to execute. More moving parts mean more ways your backup fails when you need it.
