just asked Simtec if they are planning to support BTC, unfortunately they arent.

I'd say that was highly unlikely at the moment.

I want an entropykey.  Their website only accepts google wallet, which I refuse to use.

So, I'm looking for someone trustworthy to buy me one (or maybe a 10 pack), to be shipped to a US address, in exchange for BTC.  Any takers?
nice one, ty Smiley interested aswell.

Sure.  Are you in the WOT system?
no, because i lost my keys Sad

Not exactly inspiring confidence here dude.  Smiley

PM me with a BTC price for one unit drop-shipped or re-shipped to an address in the US and an address to send it to.

If you haven't seen it there's also this:

http://warmcat.com/_wp/whirlygig-rng/

A home built project using a CPLD. Unfortunately the CPLD is pretty costly making the whole thing as much as buying the entropy key.

It seems to me there ought to be a way to use a $3 Ethernet capable PIC chip to collect some noise source and massage it into a random data stream. I have some of these PIC18F86J65 EtherPICs that I'd love to put to use as RNG if I knew more about entropy/noise sources and how to process one.

just buy an Ivy Bridge :p

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RdRand

Hmm nice.  I didn't know that existed. 
Our new servers are using Ivy Bridge Xeon processors.  Got a tip address?  That one is worth a couple bitcents.

Sure. It's 1Ku4ZGTqb3FokmMHEATzVyvSsjnwYBw7hD. Thanks Cheesy

Damn, that seems pretty expensive for what it is. I want one as well, but damn, not for that price.

It actually is pretty cheap compared to alternatives.  Remember this is a TRNG.  Other "cheap" ones run $300 to $500.  FIPS certified devices for enterprises tend to run $1K to $20K+.

Yeah, that's the problem.  This is the cheapest one available, by far.  The second cheapest option is to buy a geiger tube and build your own.  And a tiny USB stick is way more datacenter-friendly.

We will help you out.  
Send me a PM with mailing address, which product you want (1 vs 10) and the total including shipping.
I will send you a deposit address.  I will also drop the developer a note he should accept Bitcoin.  It fits it nicely with the community.


 
Lemme save you some money:



The developer used the correct term Entropy vs Random.  The method above is random but has low entropy.  BTW I love that comic though.
