Bus factor

What is Bus factor?

It is basically a number of most active contributors responsible for 80% of contributions.

Bus factor tries to assess "What happens if a key member of the team is hit by a bus?". The more there are key members, the lower the risk.

The ZenGo-X/multi-party-ecdsa repository has a bus factor of 2.

High risk, a lot of knowledge concentrated in a few people

Bus factor was measured on 14 Aug 2024

Summary of ZenGo-X/multi-party-ecdsa

The ZenGo-X/multi-party-ecdsa is a GitHub repository which provides an open-source library for Multi-Party ECDSA (Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm) written in Rust.

The ECDSA library is focused on robustness, side-channel attack safety, and simplicity of use, with the code being extensively reviewed for safety. The library uses no_std, hence can be used on embedded devices, and optionally also on multi-threaded environments with standard library. It uses round-based communication where each party sends a message in every round.

This library is part of ZenGo-X's mission to create a threshold cryptography playground. The algorithm implemented in this repository is based on Lindell's Fast Multiparty Threshold ECDSA protocol.

Please keep in mind that the use of cryptographic libraries always comes with a warning of 'use at your own risk'. The repository contains more information in its readme about the details of the implementation. If you intend to use this library for cryptographic applications, highly consider seeking professional advice and thoroughly testing the system for any possible vulnerabilities.
