Replace CoSi with BLSCoSi #1562

Closed ineiti closed 5 years ago

ineiti commented 6 years ago

from Lefteris:

I spoke with the main authors of this paper https://eprint.iacr.org/2018/417.pdf They told that there is follow-up work breaking schnorr base CoSi (able to forge signatures if there are a few dozen CoSi rounds running concurrently) As a result I would propose to bump the priority of swapping to BLSCoSi that is provable secure @swarali is currently working on testing the implementation we have but she has trouble when trying to run to more than a dozen nodes
