I just added support for adaptor signatures to my Schnorr/MuSig2 implementation for Bitcoin. This allows a group of signers to create signatures which can only be decrypted if you know a specific secret key, called the adaptor secret.

If the bearer of an adaptor signature receives a copy of the decrypted and fully-valid signature, then they can deduce the adaptor secret.

Adaptor signatures are an incredibly important part of the future of the Lightning Network, and enable all kinds of powerful protocols, like point-time lock contracts, and discreet log contracts.
