Mary Mallor, lead cryptographer for the Ethereum Foundation, bring us an introduction to threshold signatures. Threshold signatures enable a group of people to sign a transaction to make something happen.
This is foundational to the talk by Qredo which uses threshold signatures as part of their MPC (multi-party computation) tech to produce a seemly magical wallet which doesn't require the user to have a private key 🤯
