I started a new meet up group specifically for DASH – Digital Cash. This is our first meet up.

Unfortunately, our camera ran out of power about half way through so it end abruptly.
However, we got 12 people who were engaged and interested in DASH, and we setup 7 new DASH wallets and gave away .77 DASH (.11 to each person or about $20 per person)

Everyday Crypto #023 – State of the Art Passwords
For a high security password, which is needed for your e-mail, your password manager, and your cryptocurrency and more, this method is the absolute best while being the easiest to remember, transcribe, and communicate to others.
Side note, also please use 2-factor authentication for all of these as well 🙂
In this video I do a test using Mechanical Turk to transcribe 360 Passwords using random characters, BIP-39, and Diceware. I calculate which method gives the best entropy per second.
I also run a (non scientific) single memory test for each method.
