Multi-Signature (Multisig)
Definition
Multi-signature requires multiple private keys to authorize a transaction, specified as M-of-N (e.g., 2-of-3 requires any 2 of 3 designated keys). Multisig provides enhanced security, shared control, and organizational governance. Post-quantum multisig uses SPHINCS+ signatures from multiple parties.
Technical Explanation
Multisig transactions contain multiple signatures validated by the blockchain. Smart contract or script logic enforces the M-of-N requirement before accepting the transaction. Each signer uses their own private key independently—no single party can transact alone.
Post-quantum multisig considerations: multiple SPHINCS+ signatures multiply transaction size. On SynX, each SPHINCS+-SHAKE-128s signature is 7,856 bytes, so a 3-of-5 transaction carries 3 full signatures—about 23 KB. Verification requires checking each signature against its corresponding public key. Larger but still practical for the security benefits.
SynX Relevance
SynX supports multisig configurations with quantum-resistant SPHINCS+ signatures. Organizations can require multiple approvals for transactions—treasury management, partnership funds, inheritance planning—while maintaining quantum security throughout. Each signature independently resists quantum attacks.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Is 2-of-3 multisig common?
- Yes—allows spending if one key is lost while requiring consensus between two parties.
- Can multisig keys be in different locations?
- Yes—geographic distribution adds security. Signers can be in different countries.
- Are post-quantum multisig transactions slow?
- Larger signatures take marginally longer to verify, but completion is still near-instant.
