This reminds me of the machine starred in the "Casper, the friendly ghost" movie i watched as a kid. I hope you run more QA though. Would love to see your 2nd Prototype. Keep up the good work!

One of the biggest advantages of a blockchain is it's ability to trust the entries written on a distributed ledger and actions that are automatcally executed when certain criteria is met regarding those entries(This statement ignores the fact that it's still possible to take over a blockchain if you control enough of it) There are a lot of industry specific business cases where the elimination of a 3rd party trust authority would save a lot of money. Remember that not only physical goods can be stored on a blockchain. Consider a contract where multiple participants are required to execute actions in a pre defined order. In theory there are a gazillion use cases for a data structure with that kind of behaviour. In reality it most of the time comes down to the scaling ability of transactions executed/s, which is horrible at the moment.

What other factors played a role in your decision to use rust over other languages when 128bit arithmetic played such an important role you wrote inline assembly for it?

I really enjoy listening to hardcore history by Dan Carlin. Which is, no surprise, about history:) You could almost forget it's not an audio book from audible but a history podcast

Would be an intetesting article if network traffic would`ve been tracked. The difference between accessing the contact list in a 30sec intervall vs additonally sending the gathered information to their servers is a huge difference. Be it power consumption or traffic wise. Maybe its a mechanism to prevent stand by mode? I made the experience that, if i turn on power save mode i only recieve messages if i actively open whatsapp.

im impressed how fast a bot fetched the key from github, set up a trillion instances and did what exactly on them?

edit: my guess, some kind of crypto currency mining?

its a shame that 99% of the startup scene gives you a very strange look if you say you want to do the job in c#:(
