There is a Feather multisig alpha [build](https://featherwallet.org/files/temp/multisig_DO_NOT_USE_IN_PRODUCTION/) (👀). plowsof recorded a short [video](https://github.com/plowsof/feather-nodes/blob/ms-vid/README.md) of himself testing it. Some [tips](https://paste.debian.net/plainh/be005d80). Found bugs? Report in Matrix or open a new issue on GitHub. *Remember*: this is unreviewed alpha software, some things are broken, no stability is guaranteed, use insignificant amounts of XMR for testing.
