- bradleyjg 9y agoGravatar uses something like this, which they call identicons.[1] I haven't come across the idea used anywhere else. I'd think it'd have some place in the cryptocurrency world. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Identicon https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Identicon
- graysonk 9y agoI think Lotus Notes also used to something similar when you typed in your password. Its been a while (thankfully) since I used it though.
