BLS signatures have the same aggregation feature as Schnorr signatures but even better because the aggregation can be done non-interactively, at the expense of being a bit slower. We just released a first draft (but fully functional) library for doing BLS signatures based on a construction based on musig. Feedback, discussion, and usage is very welcome.
nice! how does it compare to Shigeo's implementation? https://github.com/herumi/bls

Awesome! Haven’t had the chance to run it myself yet, so curious what benchmarks you are getting?
Best, Alex
