**It is only possible to produce valid signatures of inputs of the anchor transaction by the quorum** of nodes. In this case, a confirmed anchor transaction becomes a cryptographical **proof of consensus** in the committee.

To archive this, IOTA Smart Contracts uses **BLS threshold signatures in combination with polynomial (Shamir) secret sharing** to identify the address controlling the chain state. In order for the secret keys to be distributed across the chain validators, a DKG (Distributed Key Generation) procedure is executed when starting a chain (using the Rabin-Gennaro algorithm).
