 ## Abstract
 
-This NIP defines a protocol for creating and operating FROST threshold signature quorums over Nostr keys. A quorum is a group of n participants who collectively control a shared Nostr keypair via a (t,n) threshold signing scheme, where any t members can produce a valid signature but no fewer. The quorum's private key is never known to any single party.
