Expand description
Opaque handle to a party’s portion of a distributed secret.
In a threshold scheme the secret key is never reconstructed in one
place; instead each party holds a Share. After a DKG run each
party obtains a fresh Share plus the shared public key. For
signing sessions a pre-existing Share is loaded as input.
The framework treats share bytes as opaque — the encoding is defined
by the scheme plugin. Share carries the scheme name so a share
can only be fed back into a session of the same scheme.
