From the article itself it is clear that it was not a pure base 60 system. It was basically a base 10 system where the symbol changed at 10 and not 60. A pure base would be like Hexadecimal where we use 16 symbols and 16 is equivalent to 10

I started investing in US equities 3 years ago. (I am not from US). While I invested in all the marquee stocks, one company I steered clear of was Tesla. Elon wasn't even so toxic back then. The valuation just didn't make sense. E

It is such a tired argument now. Firs of all, the magical internet gambling tokens are not an alternative to "fiat" or world financial system. The global financial system consumes far less energy per transaction considering that b

Just outright ban the stupid planet burning ponzi. If the habitual gamblers want to gamble with make believe internet tokens, let them do it with tokens that don't waste a country full of energy. I am sure they can cook up some story t

The accounts data is saved in an encrypted file. Didn't implement any master password etc because I do not see a need. It's an OTP generator. A hacker would first need to know your main login and password and the have access to yo
