Thanks, yes Multi-sig not Multibit  Tongue  late night typo.

4. Is great suggestion, if we do 2 of 4, the 4th key could be held by an attorney or trust agent.

Thanks again.
2  Bitcoin / Electrum / Electrum Multisig what is the Recovery process? on: August 09, 2016, 06:16:47 AM
I went back through the forums and could not find a detailed explanation of the following.

If I setup a 2-3 Multisig Wallet  to be handled between 3 owners.

What is the backup and recovery process?

We have copied down the seeds, but are not clear with regards to the following.

1.  If 2 of the wallets are lost or unrecoverable does this mean the funds are locked and unrecoverable?

2.  Can the privatekey from one of the wallets be exported and then swept into a new standard wallet?

3. I am assuming the normal restore for a recovery wallet, is Restore>Multibit > Seed and pubkeys of cosigners?

4. Can anyone recommend best practices for backing up multi-sig wallets, we are concerned with a scenario where 2 of the signers are incapacitated or lose their wallets, what would be a recovery process or fallback.  At same time don't want to create an attack vector by having the backups in a single location.
