A crippling flaw in a widely used code library has fatally undermined the security of millions of encryption keys used in some of the highest-stakes settings, including national identity cards, software- and application-signing, and trusted platform modules protecting government and corporate computers.

The weakness allows attackers to calculate the private portion of any vulnerable key using nothing more than the corresponding public portion. Hackers can then use the private key to impersonate key owners, decrypt sensitive data, sneak malicious code into digitally signed software, and bypass protections that prevent accessing or tampering with stolen PCs. The five-year-old flaw is also troubling because it's located in code that complies with two internationally recognized security certification standards that are binding on many governments, contractors, and companies around the world. The code library was developed by German chipmaker Infineon and has been generating weak keys since 2012 at the latest.

Description
The "base" unit of measurement in Ethereum is called Ether, which can be broken down to the eighteenth decimal place into single units called Wei. While it is useful for machines and programs to be able to deal with such small amounts, it can be difficult for the human mind to deal with such significant differences in terms of numbers. For example, if you were to think of these values in terms of US Dollars, then a Wei is to a penny what an Ether is to 1 Quintillion (1,000,000,000,000,000,000) dollars. Not only that, but these denominations have been named in honor of people whose research and ideas cryptocurrency is built upon, so the names for the denominations are relatively obscure and unintuitive to the average person.

For example: I need to send 300 Finney to someone. The gas cost for the transaction is 2 Shannon (Gwei) (per unit of gas). It will cost 21,000 units of gas. But what does this all mean in terms of Ether?

Additionally, while we like to talk and deal with units such as Ether or Finney since they're closer in value to other currencies we're used to transacting in, Ethereum itself handles all the numbers internally in terms of Wei (as an integer). So if you start to get involved with programming smart contracts for Ethereum, you often need to enter values in Wei.

So I made this app that allows you to type in a value in any of the various Ethereum denominations and it will display the equivalent value in the other denominations.

If you use Ethereum and you find this tool useful, donations of ETH or ERC20 (or similar) Tokens are greatly appreciated: 0xDC201825Cc536b9541734eb975Cd6333840C736d
