A signed, timestamped US economic statistic from the Bureau of Labor Statistics — unemploy
A signed, timestamped US economic statistic from the Bureau of Labor Statistics — unemployment rate, CPI, nonfarm payroll, participation or average hourly earnings. Returns the latest figure with about a year of history, a SHA-256 of the exact bytes BLS returned, and an Ed25519 signature. Use it to prove what a figure WAS at a moment, because BLS revises its series. Verify with soren.com/oracle-key.json
