Yes, it’s possible to set up a multisignature wallet in Sparrow Wallet and use BlueWallet in a view-only capacity. Here’s how you can achieve this:
Setting Up Sparrow Multisig Wallet:
Install Sparrow Wallet: First, ensure that Sparrow Wallet is installed on your desktop. It is available for Windows, macOS, and Linux.
Generate Keys: You’ll need to generate or import keys that will participate in the multisig setup. Sparrow allows you to use hardware wallets, such as Ledger or Trezor, or create new seed phrases.
Create a Multisig Wallet: In Sparrow, you can start creating a new wallet by selecting the option to set up a multisignature wallet. You’ll be prompted to add multiple public keys (usually up to a specified threshold) that will be used to authorize transactions.
Configure the Multisig Setup: Choose the signing requirement (e.g., 2-of-3, 3-of-5) that matches your desired level of security and redundancy.
Export Public Information:
Export xPub Keys: Once your multisig wallet is configured in Sparrow, you’ll need to export the extended public keys (xPub) for use in BlueWallet. This is crucial for the view-only mode as it allows BlueWallet to track balances without having control over the funds.
Create a Descriptor: Sparrow can export a descriptor that includes the structure of your multisig setup. This descriptor is used for importing the wallet into BlueWallet.
Setting Up View Only in BlueWallet:
Install BlueWallet: Make sure BlueWallet is installed on your mobile device, available for both Android and iOS.
Import the Wallet: Use BlueWallet’s import feature by pasting the xPub keys or descriptor you exported from Sparrow. This action creates a view-only wallet.
Monitor Balances: The view-only wallet in BlueWallet will help you monitor balances and receive transactions. However, because it is view-only, it will not allow you to sign or send transactions.
Benefits and Considerations:
Security: The multisignature configuration in Sparrow enhances security, while the view-only setup in BlueWallet adds convenience and mobility without compromising control over your funds.
Flexibility: You can monitor your funds on the go while maintaining robust security by keeping the ability to sign transactions restricted to Sparrow.
No Transaction Signing on Mobile: It is crucial to remember that you cannot sign transactions directly from BlueWallet in this setup. All signing operations will have to occur in Sparrow Wallet with the necessary authorization.
This setup offers a robust and flexible approach to managing a multisignature wallet while maintaining the convenience of mobile view access.
