Advanced guides for Bitcoin Cash
What is a Multisignature Wallet?
Normal addresses require 1 key, or password in order to broadcast a transaction onto the network. When storing large amounts of money, it makes sense to have a second more secure wallet similar to a savings account. The idea is very similar to 2-factor authentication. The 6 digit code you get texted to prove your identity.
This is kinda the physical version of a multisignature wallet. Each lock represents the total number of signatures required. But because Bitcoin Cash is software, it is possible to set any combination. The most common is either 2-of-2 or 2-of-3; Meaning there are 2 or 3 special addresses and they require 2 keys, or passwords in order to broadcast the transaction.
How is that more secure?
With multisignature, a hacker would have to hack all of your devices at once, AND would need access to them all at the same time, AND you'd be notified of any pending transactions so you can reject them before they are broadcast and lost. If you have CoPay across multiple devices like your phone, laptop, and computer, your funds are very secure and the odds of being compromised are close to 0.
Let's get started

If you went with a 2-of-2 wallet, proceed to the backup section. Otherwise, you will need to Repeat this process for your next device.
Backing up your Multisignature Wallet
On the Home screen of your first device, Click the 2 of 3 or2 of 2 address of the wallet you just created.
Then click Wallet not backed up 
Click Got It, then click I understand.
Now, open up your Enpass entry, and type the recovery phrase in the appropriate field. Rename the label as necessary.
Now back into Copay, click I've written it down and click the phrase in order.
Repeat this step for each of your devices.
Once you have backed all your devices you are done.
Note that addresses for multisignature wallets look a little different. They begin with a H, instead of a C. Also, when sending a transaction, you will be creating a proposal instead of broadcasting the payment immediately. You will see the proposal appear on your other devices and they must be approved for the transaction to be valid.
Because there is a bit more friction in sending payments out, it's a good idea to use a multisignature wallet for the bulk of your funds. The "checkings account" wallet should only be used for quick access and a small percentage of your total wealth.
