{% hint style="danger" %}

* When choosing the Vault Type, keep in mind that the owner using an **incompatible wallet extension** will not be able to join the Vault. This means that the Vault will not be created.
* It is also important to remember that you **cannot create a common Vault** for Extension wallets and Hardware/desktop wallets, even though they are compatible with the same type of Vault.
  {% endhint %}

#### ➱ Add co-owners

Add the **Bitcoin addresses** (not Ordinals\&BRC-20 addresses) of the co-owners to the wallet configuration. Ensure that each co-owner provides you with their valid Bitcoin address.&#x20;

Enter the address in the field and click **Save**.&#x20;

#### ➱ **Set the confirmation threshold**

Define the minimum number of confirmations required to authorize a transaction and click **Next**.&#x20;

This number should be less than or equal to the total number of co-owners. You can set the policy to 1 of 1, 2 of 3, 3 of 5, or any other combination that fits your needs.

{% hint style="info" %}
It is not recommended setting a threshold that requires all signers. For optimal Vault safety, there should always be at least one signer who is not required to approve every transaction.
{% endhint %}

#### ➱  Review and create your Vault

After setting the owners and policy, review your Vault configuration. Once you're satisfied, click **Create** to initialize the multisig creation on the Bitcoin blockchain. The creation process may take a few moments.&#x20;

{% hint style="warning" %}
Vault owners and the confirmation threshold cannot be changed after the Vault is created.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="danger" %}
**Vault with identical parameters (same number of signers, identical signer addresses, and confirmation threshold) cannot be created.**
{% endhint %}

<figure><img src="https://254144762-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FLmUskow6Yg0G4jQRE0Lf%2Fuploads%2FYAVRnrGvkIARjbqj1eRW%2F%D0%A1%D0%BD%D0%B8%D0%BC%D0%BE%D0%BA%20%D1%8D%D0%BA%D1%80%D0%B0%D0%BD%D0%B0%202025-04-03%20%D0%B2%207.09.59%20PM.png?alt=media&#x26;token=756847cf-4a5f-430c-8468-794cb9c06a64" alt="" width="375"><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

#### ➱ Vault is created

Once your Vault is created, it will appear on the homepage. A newly created Vault can be in ready-to-use or in pending status.&#x20;

<figure><img src="https://254144762-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FLmUskow6Yg0G4jQRE0Lf%2Fuploads%2Fkwtwnz9B1BBIfFRc49fB%2F%D0%A1%D0%BD%D0%B8%D0%BC%D0%BE%D0%BA%20%D1%8D%D0%BA%D1%80%D0%B0%D0%BD%D0%B0%202025-04-04%20%D0%B2%2012.37.03%20PM.png?alt=media&#x26;token=e0dc04ea-25e2-4fb2-8076-613faf859d8a" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

{% hint style="info" %}

* **Ready-to-use** Vault have all the owners joined. The owner(s) can already manage it, send and receive tokens, create ordinal inscriptions and more.&#x20;
* **Pending** Vault is still waiting owners to join.  All the added owners have to join the Vault to finalize its creation.&#x20;
