Hey Matias,

We ar= e working on bitcore-wallet-server (BWS), a HD multisig wallet 'facilit= ator'.=C2=A0
Currently the BWS instances hold the set of exte= nded public keys of the wallet's peers to be able to derive =C2=A0addre= sses.

Could you describe what e= xactly BWS does? It sounds like the server doesn't have to actually der= ive the keys itself for any particular purpose beyond knowing the addresses= are a part of the wallet. Could the server work if it didn't even know= that, and was just a bucket of arbitrary addresses with the clients themse= lves deriving the addresses?
