This week, a preview of Handshake multisig in Bob Wallet was teased.
Multisignature wallets require more than one private key and adds a layer of security to Handshake top-level domains. Registries could offer multisig staking for security assurances, for example. A simple interface for multisig also enables collective management of top-level domains so teams can now more easily co-own and operate TLDs.
With Handshake, anyone can own a top-level domain. And you can do it together.
