Error in 10_4_Scripting_a_Multisig.md: need $pubkey1 instead of $address1

Open Gilbog opened this issue 11 months ago • 0 comments

In 10_4_Scripting_a_Multisig.md, the multisig scriptPubkey is described as containing $address1, $address2

I think that's a mistake: The scriptPubKey contains $pubkey1, $pubkey2

OP_CHECKMULTISIG cannot check $signature1 against $address1, but needs $pubkey1
