To spend a multisig UTXO, you need however many private keys the UTXO specifies. A common multisig UTXO requires 2-of-3 private keys to spend the UTXO.
Single sig you need to guess one number, which is not safe, any miner can do that in spare time/overtime.
Miners cannot guess a private key. Mining hardware does not do the correct math to generate private keys. But even if they did the correct math, the range of possible private keys is so great that all the miners working together couldn't guess any private key before the end of the universe.

Can you crack just multisig UTXO without cracking 2-of-3 private keys? Because new multisig FROST is basically a single sig. Just interested if current multisig can be cracked in one go?
