Export of the RSA algorithm from the United States was restricted by U.S. law until 1992. You know what the RSA algo is used for today? Securing banking web sites. “An atom-blaster is a good weapon, but it can point both ways.” — Isaac Asimov

I've been very pleased with the technical performance of QubitPool. We have never missed an assigned block and metrics and alarms of been tested and are performing great! Unfortunately, we've been unlucky in the block assignment lottery. No assigned blocks this epoch 😦

QubitPool just picked up our 1 assigned block for this epoch, and we been assigned 2 early blocks for next epoch!

We just produced our first block with 1.33.0. You can see the transaction here adapools.org/blocks/c993dd8… At the same time I did this upgrade I noticed we were running close of disk space, which sent me down a few days of putting in monitoring and alarms.

A big thanks to our latest delegator! Thank you!

Small aside rant... Only in America do you find out the price for healthcare AFTER you purchase it. Opaque market with incomplete pricing information. What other market operates this way???? 😬

The Federal Reserve's Money and Payments paper has a few gems.. "The Board’s Technology Lab has been studying the use of application programming interfaces to support the issuance, distribution, and use of privately issued digital currencies" Wow! #CBDC #CBDCs

Does anyone else read seed word phrases like tea leaves?

tldr; we couldn't figure out distributed ledger technology so we recommend a centralized database with commit / rollback capability managed by the government to create a CBDC. #CBDC #cryptocurrency bostonfed.org/news-and-event…
