Another flavour of Technical Analysis, adjusting the exponents over time to match history so far?
Intriguing but nothing to bet the farm on.
If you have any reason to suspect that your wallet seed might have been generated from a poor/bad source of randomness, I would take a deep breath, generate a new seed, and transfer your other UTXOs over to that seed instead.
What took miners so long? Does greed block a willingness to find ways to improve efficiency on the firmware level?
Did Braiins custom firmware already fix this?
My thought was to start the CA at the top and the bottom of the screen with the two different functions applied to the cash which should be equal if the cash validates (taking the number to the proper exponent on one hand, and applying the MD5 hash of the serial number on the other, for the case of magic money). Then we work inwards with the two seeds. Proper cash will produce a symmetrical pattern.
Why would it produce a symmetrical pattern?
Somehow that Oscar Wilde quote morphed in my mind over several years into "Sarcasm is the poor mans humor".
