The Threshold Signature Scheme (TSS) is a cryptographic protocol that provides a more secure and efficient way to authorize transactions than other key management systems like multi-sig. It distributes the private key generation and signing process among multiple parties so that no single party has access to the entire key. This makes it more secure against hacking and internal compromises. Additionally, TSS transactions are smaller and cheaper to verify than multi-sig transactions.

Elastic supply tokens are a new and growing sector of DeFi. They are tokens whose total supply automatically adjusts to try to maintain a target price. This is done through a process called rebasing, which can be profitable but also risky. Ampleforth is the largest and most established elastic supply token project, but there are many others, including RMPL, YAM, REB, and BASED.

In this article, Vitalik directly addresses a specific technical aspect of a subproblem: how to more easily read from L2 to L1, from L1 to L2, or from one L2 to another L2. Solving this issue is crucial for achieving asset/key separation architecture, but it also has valuable use cases in other areas, most notably optimizing reliable cross-L2 calls, including use cases such as moving assets between L1 and L2.
