title: Adaptor Signatures
---
Bitcoin-S now has support for [ECDSA Adaptor Signatures](https://github.com/discreetlogcontracts/dlcspecs/blob/03bf7095c2016e1ce9c9fb612920872d4456f179/ECDSA-adaptor.md).
There are four relevant functions to adaptor signatures:
* `sign` (aka encrypt)
* This function belongs to `ECPrivateKey` and creates an adaptor signature given a message (`ByteVector`) and an adaptor point (`ECPublicKey`).
* `verify`
* Verifies an adaptor signature given the signing public key, the message and the adaptor point.
* `complete` (aka decrypt)
* This function belongs to `ECPrivateKey` and computes a valid ECDSA signature given a valid adaptor signature whose adaptor point is this private key's public key.
* `extract` (aka recover)
* This function belongs to `ECPublicKey` and computes the adaptor secret (private key to this public key) given a valid adaptor signature for this adaptor point, and the valid ECDSA signature computed using `complete`.
The following code shows each function to do with adaptor signature usage:
```scala mdoc:invisible
import org.bitcoins.crypto.ECPrivateKey
val privKey = ECPrivateKey.freshPrivateKey
val pubKey = privKey.publicKey
val adaptorSecret = ECPrivateKey.freshPrivateKey
val adaptorPoint = adaptorSecret.publicKey
val msg = scodec.bits.ByteVector.fromValidHex("010101010101")
```
```scala mdoc:compile-only
// Alice generates an adaptor signature using her private key and the adaptor point
val adaptorSig = privKey.adaptorSign(adaptorPoint, msg)
// Bob verifies this adaptor signature using Alice's public key and the adaptor point
require(pubKey.adaptorVerify(msg, adaptorPoint, adaptorSig))
// Bob computes a valid ECDSA signature using the adaptorSignature, which he knows
val sig = adaptorSecret.completeAdaptorSignature(adaptorSig)
// Anyone can validate this signature
require(pubKey.verify(msg, sig))
// Alice can compute the adaptor secret from the signatures
val secret = adaptorPoint.extractAdaptorSecret(adaptorSig, sig)
require(secret == adaptorSecret)
```
