Introduction

This is a high-performance threshold EdDSA/Schnorr signing protocol based on the paper Simple Three-Round Multiparty Schnorr Signing with Full Simulatability.

This is a production-ready, audited implementation and has undergone a comprehensive security audit by HashCloak.

Features

• Distributed Key Generation (DKG)
• Distributed Signature Generation (DSG)
• Key refresh
• Quorum Change: dynamically change the participant set by adding or removing parties

Installing, Testing, Benchmarks

Building

cargo build

Running Tests

cargo test

Examples

Under examples/ directory there are examples on how to perform keygen, sign and refresh.

Running the examples:

cargo run --example keygen
cargo run --example sign
cargo run --example refresh

Implementation Details

• This library provides Distributed Key Generation generic over any elliptic curve group that implements the Group trait from the elliptic-curve crate.
• We currently support threshold Schnorr signing with random nonce over curve25519 and Bitcoin Taproot Schnorr over the secp256k1 curve.

Not in scope:

• This library contains only the cryptographic protocol and does not provide any networking functions.
• The parties in the protocol do not authenticate themselves and do not establish e2e secure channels
