Hi, On behalf of the Apache Milagro (incubating) community, I'd like to announce the release of Apache Milagro (incubating) MPC v0.1
OVERVIEW libmpc is a modern cryptographic C library that implements Multi-Party Computation, or MPC. This library implements the primitives necessary to instantiate the multi-party ECDSA signature scheme provided in Gennaro and Goldfeder’s “Fast Multiparty Threshold ECDSA with Fast Trustless Setup” (GG18) ( https://eprint.iacr.org/2019/114.pdf). GG18 consists of a multiparty threshold signature scheme which enables distributed signing among n players such that any subgroup of size t + 1 can sign, whereas any group with t or fewer players cannot. This scheme is proven secure for any t <= n and provides significant reduction of computation and communication complexity comparing to other existing schemes. NCC Group has conducted a security assessment of libmpc ( https://research.nccgroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/NCC_Group_Qredo_Apache_Milagro_MPC_Cryptographic_Review_2020-07-16_v1.3.pdf ). RELEASE: The official release can be downloaded from the Apache Milagro website: http://milagro.apache.org/docs/downloads/ Release notes including a full description of the library and rationale for this release can be found here: https://github.com/apache/incubator-milagro-MPC/releases/tag/0.1 Instructions on how to build (including documentation) and test the project can be found in the project's README: https://github.com/apache/incubator-milagro-MPC Full documentation for the library is also hosted here: https://milagro.apache.org/docs/mpc-api-0.1/ On behalf of the Milagro community, I would like to thank all our contributors, mentors and the IPMC. Regards, John McCane-Whitney Apache Milagro (incubating) is an effort undergoing incubation at The Apache Software Foundation (ASF), sponsored by the Apache Incubator. Incubation is required of all newly accepted projects until a further review indicates that the infrastructure, communications, and decision making process have stabilized in a manner consistent with other successful ASF projects. While incubation status is not necessarily a reflection of the completeness or stability of the code, it does indicate that the project has yet to be fully endorsed by the ASF.
