I Just Hit $100k/year On GitHub Sponsors

"For each donated dollar, I will create and send you 100 random bytes that you can use in your cryptographic applications."

$7 = 700 random bytes

$15 = 1500 random bytes + 500 bytes free!

$99 = lifetime* subscription for 25k random bytes per year

* your lifetime or my lifetime, whichever terminates earlier

Do you have any collectible limited edition bytes?

Those would be the special one-of-a-kind bytes that we log to ensure no two people get the same bytes twice. Bonus: the logs are numbered, so we can validate those bytes. Downside: we’ll have to ask for a monthly donation to cover storing the bytes and bandwidth ;-)

High entropy edition: with RSA padding, signed by famous cryptographers.

I'd buy the $99 option and use it as the trigger for my dead mans switch :).

But do you warrant that they are actually random?

Truth in advertising and all that.
