Secret Sharing with Snitching: Addressing Shareholder Collusion in Threshold Cryptography
Secret Sharing with Snitching solves the issue of shareholder collusion by making it provable and punishable.
A recent paper by Dziembowski et al., that was published at the ACM CCS 2024 conference, made significant progress towards answering this question. The paper is co-authored by Stefan Dziembowski and Sebastian Faust, the two cryptographers behind the Shutter protocol scheme, and introduces an innovative cryptographic primitive called Secret Sharing with Snitching (SSS), which solves the issue of shareholder collusion by making it provable and punishable.

Introducing StealthBid. Saving DAOs from Throwing Money Away
