[Feature] Spending UTXOs from multiple wallets in a single transaction #1487

Closed pycanis closed 2 months ago

pycanis commented 2 months ago

Is it reasonable to implement such feature? How difficult would it be?

craigraw commented 2 months ago

The point of having multiple wallets/accounts is segregation - to avoid combining UTXOs in a single transaction that links them onchain. Adding this feature could cause more harm than good.

From an implementation perspective, it's quite difficult - there would need to be some kind of a "master wallet" which acted like all the open wallets simultaneously.

Although I'd still benefit from this feature, I understand there's only a niche use case. Thanks for the reply.
