Our hive is not large enough... :( (Destiny)

Too much fun to be had and not enough time to really dig into this!

It appears that there are 1024 different nodes (4 shapes, 5 positions... 4^5 = 1024). If each node is 1/8 of a key, and assuming that two people with the same node have the same key segment, then there are 128 different keys out there, and each one will decode eight blobs when combined with that blob's initialization vector.

The takeaway is that there just aren't enough of us here at DBO to do much with this. I checked out Reddit this morning and, as Khazgul noted, we need to contribute our data to the larger data-gathering operation of the Community. I suggest folks submit their information to the data gathering form to help boost the signal over there.

Just submitted mine. They've got 1700 entries - mine's not showing up yet, so it's not automated, and some are garbage, and there are dupes; a quick look suggests that they currently have almost 900 uniques (of the 1024 there are to get). That's pretty impressive for less than a day!
