The signer can be offline as all necessary information will be provided in the transaction. ===Motivation=== Creating unsigned or partially signed transactions to be passed around to multiple signers is currently implementation dependent, making it hard for people who use different wallet software from being able to easily do so. One of the goals of this document is to create a standard and extensible format that can be used between clients to allow people to pass around the same transaction to sign and combine their signatures. The format is also designed to be easily extended for future use which is harder to do with existing transaction formats. Signing transactions also requires users to have access to the UTXOs being spent. This transaction format will allow offline signers such as air-gapped wallets and hardware wallets to be able to sign transactions without needing direct access to the UTXO set and without risk of being defrauded.
