Could you describe what exactly BWS does?
Sure. BWS tasks are:
* Coordinate Transaction proposals in multisignature wallets: provide
an 'always connected' node to distribute pending transaction proposals
and receive the signatures from peers.
* Coordinate and store BIP32 derivation indexes.
It sounds like the main issue is this is a web wallet server of some kind.
If the clients were SPV then they'd be checking their own balances and
downloading their own tx history, which would mean the coordination tasks
could be done by storing encrypted blobs on the server rather than the
server
You are killing us Mike! :) We really don't like to think that BWS is
a webwallet. Note
that private keys are not stored (not even encrypted) at the server.
Sure, sorry, by web wallet I meant a blockchain.info/CoPay type setup where
the client has the private keys and signs txns, but
This seems overly complicated to me, unless I'm missing something.
Instead, I think you should just give the server the master pubkey P
only without the chaincode.
Then when you transact you generate the address in whatever manner you
like and tell the server the scalar value iL which the user
Hello everyone,
We are working on bitcore-wallet-server (BWS), a HD multisig wallet
'facilitator'. We have a couple of questions regarding BIP32 path usage,
and we would love to have feedback from you before moving forward.
Currently the BWS instances hold the set of extended public keys of the
