Powers of Tau Attestation by Troy Stackhouse
Date: February 22, 2018


I had a new, unconfigured laptop which provided an easy opportunity to participate, since I could just wipe it clean afterwards. I set it up fresh with Windows 10 a few days ago and made sure it was fully patched. I kept the machine offline when I wasn't using it, and more recently I downloaded the Rust implementation of powersoftau, which I compiled using Visual Studio Code w/ Rust rls (which also required I install Visual Studio C++ desktop tools).


When it came to the ceremony, I kept the machine in my sight the whole time and no other human beings were nearby. For entropy, I simply mashed my keyboard... a lot (much longer than I felt was necessary). Upon completion, I fully wiped the drive with DBAN (currently in progress).


Here's my BLAKE2b hash:
