I'm OOTL. Why am I seeing the number 4 everywhere? |

I assume his private key ended up being mostly 4s? |

"Mostly", that's commendable optimism on your part. Not mostly but entirely. It's the entirety of the key: 4. https://emudhra.we-have-a-problem.com/ Edit: the source I wanted to link is down, probably server overwhelm. Ask the search engine of your choice for emudhra. |

Wasn’t it a bunch of zeros followed by a 4? |

I've been lead to believe that that makes no difference. |

Today's XKCD is weirdly relevant. They should upgrade to 5. |

Well Randall wrote their rng so it makes sense he'd be ahead of the game on this. |

Yes... but no. You probably saw a rendering error. The private keys in question were only eight bits in length (decimal values 0 to 255). A proper key for the specific encryption should have been 384 bits, or about 116 decimal digits. If a string format function expects a 384 bit number, but only receives 8, it might fill out the missing places with zeroes. |
