Scenario: Suppose that I have to make three transactions simultaneously to Alice, Bob and Claudia. Now the condition is if any one transaction fails the other two must also not go through.
Query: Is there any way to achieve this without using smart contracts? Is there any in-built feature of Ethereum Blockchain that can create batches for multiple transactions?
Unlike cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, the Ethereum transaction format only allows for exactly 1 destination address. There is no way to achieve this without using a smart contract. I'm not sure why you want to avoid using a smart contract.
Something you can try is a smart contract that, when deployed, immediately performs the transfers and then destroys itself. For example:
pragma solidity ^0.4.24;
contract Multisend
{
constructor(address[] memory destinations, uint256[] amounts) public payable
{
require(destinations.length == amounts.length);
for (uint256 i=0; i<destinations.length; i++)
{
destinations[i].transfer(amounts[i]);
}
selfdestruct(msg.sender);
}
}
Here you can see it in action:
