Zcash Foundation implements FROST as a Rust crate that supports five cipher suites, both trusted-dealer and DKG keygen, re-randomized FROST, share recover shares and a working demo that signs a shielded transaction and successfully broadcasts it via my wallet. A completed audit and a Trail of Bits DKG DoS fix are merged; a decoupled FROST server (HTTP/JSON) relays signing messages today while ZIP‑312 and client libraries are under review for production deployment.
