Shared (multisig) wallet use cases

Many people in crypto never move beyond using basic wallets. After all, the reasoning goes, basic wallets are sufficient and easier to use than shared wallets. Using a shared wallet can seem technical and unnecessary, but by focusing on real world uses, we hope to show that shared wallets provide important utility to many people. If you aren’t familiar with what a shared wallet is, please refer to our shared Bitcoin wallet primer or shared Bitcoin Cash wallet primer before proceeding.
