Safe
A Safe multisig requires a set number of owners to approve any transaction, so no single lost phone or bad decision drains it. Here is what people actually do with it, gathered from 12 solved problems and 1 Unlock.
Uses the community found
what people really do with it
The under-marketed use is inheritance and household savings: a 2 of 3 Safe lets a family survive one lost phone, which DAO-focused marketing never mentions.
from: Share a family wallet that needs two of three to move money →A 2 of 3 Safe shared by siblings abroad lets several people chip in to one family pot that no single person can drain. Safe multisig wallets require a set number of owners to approve each payment.
from: Sending money home costs too much →A family Safe can act as a shared emergency fund that any two of three relatives can release. Safe multisig thresholds let a group, not one institution, approve payments.
from: My bank froze my account →A 2 of 3 family Safe is a savings jar that protects against both theft and an impulsive withdrawal. Safe requires several owners to approve any spend.
from: Keep my savings worth something →A Safe has no monthly fee, unlike a business bank account. Safe is free to use; you only pay network gas.
from: Fund our group with no bank account →A recovery delay gives you time to cancel an early takeover. The Safe Recovery Service offers grace periods such as 3, 7 or 14 days.
from: Make sure my family gets my crypto →Setting up the whole family Safe on an L2 costs cents, not lawyer fees. Gas on L2s is very low.
from: Make sure my family gets my crypto →Every outgoing payment from a group wallet can need, say, three of five members to sign, so no treasurer can run off with it. Safe lets you set any threshold of signers when you create it.
