Hi and thank you for sharing this feature request, currently MetaMask doesn’t directly support multisignature (multisig) functionality within its interface, meaning you can’t set up a requirement for transactions to be authorized by multiple addresses originating from different seed phrases directly through MetaMask. This is because MetaMask operates as a single-signature wallet, designed for simplicity and ease of use for individual users.
However, you can still achieve multisig functionality by interacting with a multisig wallet or safe, an example could be Gnosis Safe, through MetaMask. Gnosis Safe, for example, allows you to create a multisig wallet where transactions require approval from multiple parties before they can be executed. You can use MetaMask to interact with your Gnosis Safe by connecting MetaMask to the Safe’s web interface. This way, MetaMask acts as a bridge, allowing you to sign transactions and interact with the blockchain, while Gnosis Safe manages the multisig aspect, ensuring added security by requiring multiple approvals.
This setup combines the user-friendly experience of MetaMask with the enhanced security of a multisig wallet, providing a solution for users seeking the added protection of multisig without sacrificing the convenience of using MetaMask. While it may introduce some additional steps into your transaction process, this approach allows you to leverage the benefits of multisig security for sensitive operations or high-value assets.
Always be careful who and what you interact with online and always do your own research before doing anything.
