The problem Flow Octopus solves
Flow Octopus is a multi-signature wallet that allows multiple parties to sign off on transactions on the Flow blockchain. The wallet is designed to provide an extra layer of security for managing digital assets, by requiring multiple parties to approve a transaction before it can be executed.
With Flow Octopus, you can set up a 2-of-3 or 3-of-5 multi-signature wallet, for example, that requires a certain number of parties to approve a transaction before it goes through. This can be useful in a variety of settings, such as businesses, family or shared finances, and more.
The wallet is easy to use and provides a user-friendly interface for managing your digital assets on the Flow blockchain. It also supports a range of features, such as viewing your transaction history, adding new parties to the wallet, and more. Overall, Flow Octopus is a powerful and flexible tool for managing digital assets on the Flow blockchain with increased security.
Challenges we ran into
Creating a shared account can be difficult because it requires coordination between multiple parties, who must agree on the terms of access and use of the account. Designing a signature scheme that satisfies all parties' security requirements can also be challenging, as different parties may have different security needs or preferences. Additionally, getting signatures from the wallets can be tricky, as it may require the use of hacky methods to access the necessary keys.
Notifying the other account holder that there is a pending transaction can also be a challenge, especially if the parties are in different time zones or use different communication channels. Finally, calculating the exact transaction time can be difficult, as it depends on factors such as network congestion and the order in which signatures are received. All of these difficulties highlight the need for careful planning and coordination when setting up shared accounts and multi-signature schemes.
