A multisignature address is an address that is associated with more than one private key; therefore, we need to create three private keys.

Go through the following steps to create a multisignature bitcoin address:

1. Create three private keys:

#!/usr/bin/env python
'''
Title - Create multi-signature address

This program demonstrates the creation of
Multi-signature bitcoin address.
'''
# import bitcoin
from bitcoin import *

# Create Private Keys
my_private_key1 = random_key()
my_private_key2 = random_key()
my_private_key3 = random_key()

print("Private Key1: %s" % my_private_key1)
print("Private Key2: %s" % my_private_key2)
print("Private Key3: %s" % my_private_key3)
print('
')

2. Create three public keys from those private keys using the privtopub function:

# Create Public keys
my_public_key1 = privtopub(my_private_key1)
my_public_key2 = privtopub(my_private_key2)
my_public_key3 = privtopub(my_private_key3)

print("Public Key1: %s" % my_public_key1)
print("Public Key2: %s" % my_public_key2)
print("Public Key3: %s" % my_public_key3)
print('
')

3. After generating the public keys, create the multisig by passing the three public keys to the mk_ multi-sig_script function. The resulting multisig is passed to the addr script function to create the multisignature bitcoin address.

# Create Multi-signature address
my_multi_sig = mk_multisig_script(my_private_key1, my_private_key2, my_private_key3, 2,3)
my_multi_address = scriptaddr(my_multi_sig)
print("Multi signature address: %s" % my_multi_address)

4. Print the multisignature address and execute the script.

The following screenshot shows the output for the multisig bitcoin address:

You can also look at the preexisting bitcoin addresses' transactional history. We will first get a valid address from Blockchain.info.

The following screenshot shows the copied address of a bitcoin block:

Pass the copied address to the history function, as shown in the following code, along with the output to get the history of the bitcoin address, including the transactional information:

!/usr/bin/env python
'''
Title - Bitcoin Transaction History

This program demonstrates listing history of a bitcoin address.
'''
# import bitcoin
from bitcoin import *

#View address transaction history
a_valid_bitcoin_address = '329e5RtfraHHNPKGDMXNxtuS4QjZTXqBDg'
print(history(a_valid_bitcoin_address))
