The following sections explore the core concepts of Entropy.
This page covers the process of joining the Entropy network as a validator node, along with specific information that each node must provide.
When sending messages to threshold signature servers on the Entropy network, you must authenticate and encrypt the messages. This page covers that process.
This page covers the process where key shares held by validators in a network are periodically updated to maintain the security of the network.
The purpose of an Entropy program is to determine whether a group of nodes should generate a signature or not. Developers can create and deploy programs, but validator nodes are the only agents that …
A user needs to register in order to be able to use the Entropy network to sign messages. This page covers that process.
Getting a signature from the network is the main purpose of Entropy. Once you have this signature you can apply it onto whatever cryptographic process you need, like signing a PGP message or …
This page covers what a threshold signature scheme is, and how they are used within the Entropy network.
entropy-core is run by validator nodes in the Entropy network. It has two different binaries, both of which are run by each validator node:
The Entropy blockchain is built with Substrate. This handles …
