    Use MPC instead? Sadly there are not enough mature open source projects around: https://github.com/ZenGo-X/multi-party-ecdsa and you can always take a look at https://github.com/rdragos/awesome-mpc

    Sadly companies like Unbound were acquired by Coinbase and the OSS codebase is not longer maintained: https://github.com/unboundsecurity/blockchain-crypto-mpc

    Ha nice call!

    Unfortunately we have not completed a satisfactory security audit. We engaged with one company, but I don't think they were worth their salt. The problem is that the "good" companies are much more expensive, so it's a consideration of the value of the security audit. (If you know of a reputable company that would like to audit for free though...)

    The code is not yet open source, but we are primarily expanding on this open-source library. https://github.com/ZenGo-X/multi-party-ecdsa

  • Potential attack on threshold ECDSA prevented, counter-terrorists win!

    As true decentralized security enthusiasts, we quickly got in touch with ZenGo and fixed the discovered security breach in a pull request. It was soon approved and merged into their TSS library. The researcher who found the attack was granted a bug bounty, the biggest in ZenGo’s history.
