Lit Protocol is a decentralized key management network powered by threshold cryptography.

What is Lit?
Lit is a decentralized key management network powered by threshold cryptography that facilitates encryption, access control, and automation for the open web via programmatic signing. On a fundamental level, Lit is an attempt to decentralize public key cryptography. This includes building apps with private data using identity-based encryption, facilitating more seamless onboarding experiences for non-crypto natives with MPC wallets, and more. Lit can be used to read and write data between blockchains and off-chain platforms. To learn more, visit the developer documentation at developer.litprotocol.com.
