ProsCons
MPC wallets are incredibly safe thanks to their novel security mechanism.There are relatively fewer MPC wallet solutions available, as compared to multisig wallets.
MPC wallets provide you with more flexibility in managing your assets, especially if it’s a wallet for institutions or investment groups.MPC wallets appear easy to use on the outset, but they still require a level of technical expertise and cryptography knowledge.
MPC wallets greatly reduce the risk of a single point of failure.MPC wallets can take slightly longer to execute transactions because its security mechanism is fairly resource-intensive.
MPC wallets are highly decentralised, adhering to cryptocurrency’s core principles.You’d still need to manage each private key fragment carefully. After all, each one is crucial to forming the full key.
