Hi
We had an online Socratic on August 11th with Tim Ruffing (co-author of MuSig2
draft BIP) and Elizabeth Crites (co-author of research papers on MuSig(2),
FROST). It was previously announced here [0] but ended up being rescheduled.
The transcript is here [1], the video is here [2] and a reading list collecting
together a number of resources on MuSig(2), FROST, ROAST etc is here [3].
We discussed a retrospective look at BIP340, handling x-only public keys in
MuSig2 and the proposed TLUV covenant opcode, the history from initially broken
MuSig1 through MuSig-DN to MuSig2, how MuSig2 and FROST compare for multisig
schemes (i.e. n-of-n), why MuSig2 doesn't use proofs of possession and the
current state of the draft MuSig2 BIP.
We covered a lot of topics and it was rather long (~2.5 hours) so check out the
transcript or video if you are interested in any of the above topics. Many
thanks to those who participated.
Jonas Nick recently tweeted [4] that the MuSig2 BIP [5] is approaching a stable
version 1.0 which should be helpful to those who are interested (or already!)
using it in the wild.
