Write keys

Your ticket to entry is a private unique identifier whose hash is partly memorable, as explained at muid.org where there is a video. Consider this proof of work to be a primitive mechanism obviating registration, yet throttling some attacks.

That’s because difficult keys take longer to create. You need a difficulty 12 key to create streams (and 13 for copula streams). You are also well served by a difficult key when making predictions, due to the bankruptcy rules.

Option 1. Python

Open notebook_examples/New_Key and be patient.

Or:

from microprediction import new_key
print(new_key(difficulty=12))

Option 2. Beg

If you are bored waiting for a 13-strength key you absolutely need? Ping us in the slack

You can also politely request a balance boost, if bankruptcy is proving annoying or is likely to be so.
