The short version
MODE 2 OF 2
What the primary record establishes
MuSig2 signers first exchange public nonces. In a second round they produce partial signatures for aggregation. The result is one signature that can be checked under BIP 340 against the aggregate public key. The ordinary setup needs contributions from every key in the chosen set. BIP 327 · MuSig2 ↗
What the distinction changes
The onchain verifier sees a familiar Schnorr signature. The wallet still has to coordinate participants and persist state through interruptions. A service can retransmit a saved message after a network failure, but invoking signing twice with the same secret nonce can expose a signing key.
What to check before drawing a conclusion
A test plan should cover single-use secret nonce storage, session binding and restart recovery between rounds. Include a signer that drops out and verify that any replacement session creates fresh signing state.
