This package implements Shamir's Secret Sharing extended with Feldman's Verifiable Secret Sharing over elliptic curve groups.
It is aimed to be very easy to use.

Secret sharing enables to _shard_ (or _split_) a secret key into an arbitrary number of shares _n_ and to recover that
same key with any subset of at minimum _t_ of these key shares in a _(t,n)_-threshold scheme.

Note that the key distribution (sharding) algorithm used in this package is a _trusted dealer_ (i.e. centralised). If
you need a truly decentralized key generation, you can use the [dkg package](https://github.com/bytemare/dkg) which builds on this package.
