#### BLS Signatures #### BLS signatures
Eth2 makes use of BLS signatures as specified in the [IETF draft BLS specification draft-irtf-cfrg-bls-signature-04](https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-irtf-cfrg-bls-signature-04). Specifically, eth2 uses the `BLS_SIG_BLS12381G2_XMD:SHA-256_SSWU_RO_POP_` ciphersuite which implements the following interfaces: The [IETF BLS signature draft standard v4](https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-irtf-cfrg-bls-signature-04) with ciphersuite `BLS_SIG_BLS12381G2_XMD:SHA-256_SSWU_RO_POP_` defines the following functions:
- `def Sign(SK: int, message: Bytes) -> BLSSignature` - `def Sign(privkey: int, message: Bytes) -> BLSSignature`
- `def Verify(PK: BLSPubkey, message: Bytes, signature: BLSSignature) -> bool` - `def Verify(pubkey: BLSPubkey, message: Bytes, signature: BLSSignature) -> bool`
- `def Aggregate(signatures: Sequence[BLSSignature]) -> BLSSignature` - `def Aggregate(signatures: Sequence[BLSSignature]) -> BLSSignature`
- `def FastAggregateVerify(PKs: Sequence[BLSPubkey], message: Bytes, signature: BLSSignature) -> bool` - `def FastAggregateVerify(pubkeys: Sequence[BLSPubkey], message: Bytes, signature: BLSSignature) -> bool`
- `def AggregateVerify(PKs: Sequence[BLSPubkey], messages: Sequence[Bytes], signature: BLSSignature) -> bool` - `def AggregateVerify(pubkeys: Sequence[BLSPubkey], messages: Sequence[Bytes], signature: BLSSignature) -> bool`
Within these specifications, BLS signatures are treated as a module for notational clarity, thus to verify a signature `bls.Verify(...)` is used. The above functions are accessed through the `bls` module, e.g. `bls.Verify`.
