Create multi-signature address (external)

Source: R/addresses.R
mc_create_multisig.Rd

Creates a Pay‑to‑Script‑Hash (P2SH) multi-signature address without adding it to the wallet. The address can be used in transactions that require multiple signatures, but the node cannot spend funds from it unless the private keys are also imported.

Usage

mc_create_multisig(conn, n_required, keys)

Arguments

conn

A connection object created by mc_connect.

n_required

Integer. Number of required signatures.

keys

Character vector. Public keys or addresses.

Value

A list with two components:

address

The multi-signature address.

redeemScript

The redeem script (needed for spending).

See also

mc_add_multisig_address to create and add the address to the wallet.

Other addresses: mc_add_multisig_address(), mc_create_keypairs(), mc_get_addresses(), mc_get_new_address(), mc_import_address(), mc_list_addresses(), mc_validate_address()

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
multisig <- mc_create_multisig(conn, n_required = 2,
                               keys = c("pubkey1", "pubkey2", "pubkey3"))
cat("Multisig address:", multisig$address)
} # }
