 Replying to [comment:15 Sebastian]:

 ring cheating sybils.

 Partial fingerprint searches are already supported for hex-encoded
 fingerprints and will be supported for base64-encoded fingerprints, too.
 Sounds like we're doing good here.

 > Why I requested the base64 format is because I want to plug whatever I
 see in a consensus in Tor into the tool to learn more about it. The same
 goes for the reverse direction - by having them displayed on the website,
 I can easily search for them on disk. I'm not sure if I ever asked for
 hex-encoded digests, only fingerprints I believe.

 The search part will be supported by Onionoo soon, and the display part is
 something you'll have to request from Atlas/Globe people in separate
 tickets.  That's for relay fingerprints.

 Does that mean descriptor digests are not relevant for your use cases?
 That includes server descriptors, extra-info descriptors, and
 microdescriptors.  There was some discussion of these above, but if
 fingerprints are all you care about, I'm happy not to include a feature
 that wouldn't be used anyway.
