# Distributed Key Generation

A collection of implementations of various distributed key generation protocols.

All included protocols resolve into the provided `Threshold` types, intended to
enable their modularity. Additional utilities around these types, such as
promotion from one generator to another, are also provided.

Currently, the only included protocol is the two-round protocol from the
[FROST paper](https://eprint.iacr.org/2020/852).

This library was
