Multisig Accounts ​

Coordinate a multisig so at least threshold signatories must approve before an extrinsic lands on-chain. No single member key is enough by itself.

Create a multisig ​

From Add Account > Add Multisig > Create:

  1. Add member SS58 addresses (minimum two).
  2. Set the approval threshold.
  3. Optionally enable With Pure Proxy to spawn a pure proxy controlled by this multisig.
  4. Confirm the deterministic multisig address in the preview.
  5. Tap Create.

With With Pure Proxy selected, the wallet routes you into pure proxy setup after the extrinsic succeeds. Otherwise it opens the multisig detail screen.

Open multisig details ​

The detail view lists:

  • Signatories - members and the threshold
  • Pure Proxies - pure proxies the multisig controls, with verification state per card
  • Regular Proxies - delegations where this multisig is the real or delegate account
  • Pending Operations - asMulti / approveAsMulti work waiting for more approvals
  • Pending Announcements - proxy announcements still inside the delay window

The overflow menu covers rename, removal (with balance and pure-proxy warnings), encrypted setup import/export, and proxy setup.

Start a multisig operation ​

From multisig details or the home New Operation affordance:

  1. Pick an operation type:

    • Transfer - send TAO to an address
    • Stake - stake to a hotkey on a subnet
    • Unstake - withdraw stake
    • Move Stake - move stake between subnets
    • Raw - submit opaque call bytes (hex)

  2. Context-only types (not always in the generic picker) include Kill Pure Proxy, Transfer Pure Proxy Ownership, Add Proxy Type, and Revoke Proxy Type.

  3. Fill recipients, amounts, hotkeys, subnet IDs, or raw hex as required.

  4. Choose the signing member from wallet accounts that belong to the multisig.

  5. Toggle Execute via Proxy when the multisig should act through a pure or regular proxy.

  6. Read the fee and deposit breakdown.

  7. Authenticate and broadcast.

The first approval uses asMulti (or the wallet's equivalent batching); additional members finish via Pending Operations.

Share or import encrypted setup ​

Multisig metadata is local until every participant imports the same configuration.

Export - In the menu, choose Share Multisig Setup, enter a passphrase, and copy the taomsig:v1:... blob (AES-GCM + PBKDF2). Exchange the blob and passphrase over a channel you trust.

Import - Under Add Account > Add Multisig > Import, paste the blob, enter the passphrase, and confirm. Signatories, threshold, and linked proxy metadata hydrate automatically.

Remove a multisig from the wallet ​

Deleting the local row warns when balances are non-zero or when pure proxies would lose their imported controller context. On-chain multisig accounts and funds are untouched; only this wallet's copy disappears.

For delegate flows that multisigs often use, see Proxy and Pure Proxy.
