Abstract

Systems and methods for hardened key derivation in multi-party computation. The method includes deriving child private key shares from parent private key shares using hardened multiparty computation while maintaining key refresh properties. The method includes selecting a random number generator G and a second random number generator G′. Child private key shares are derived by computing an offset using G′.
