Was looking for something else related to Ethereum, but saw this Reddit comment & felt compelled to respond.
1. Ethereum's version of keccak is different than the SHA3 standard because they decided to move ahead before the authors of the algorithm sent in their final submissions (to the NIST competition; 'Blake' was another finalist here).
2. The "NSA" did not force the authors to tweak their algorithm. The U.S. agency responsible for holding the competition, liaising w teams, publishing information & ultimately adjudicating the competition was the NIST.

Telegram Be The Next Best SPAC
I have no inside knowledge of a potential stock listing of the popular anti-Whatsapp messaging app, Telegram. But I know this much, judging by most people I talk to, especially crypto investors, if Telegram ever went public, people would gobble it up. I know I would. I’m waiting for it. So is Sergei Sergienko, who claims he owns $800,000 of Telegram’s pre-initial coin offering (ICO) tokens. “If Telegram does a SPAC IPO, there would be demand for this issue. It would probably outstrip the interest we saw during the ICO. Why? Because as of right now Telegram looks like a liberal application that can accept anyone - right after WhatsApp and others have turn on the censorship,” he says.
