Cantic order-4 hexagonal tiling

In geometry, the cantic order-4 hexagonal tiling is a uniform tiling of the hyperbolic plane. It has Schläfli symbol of t0,1{(4,4,3)} or h2{6,4}.

gollark: Hypothetically you could have a cryptocurrency where only the government can issue a coin - instead of mining it (proof of work), it would just be digitally signed by a government key.
gollark: They totally can.
gollark: Having one organization perform an increasingly large amount of important functions never ends well.
gollark: Payments are hard and Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, despite being generally kind of terrible, at least have a solution which is *technologically* secured instead of just relying on goodwill or something, and which doesn't force you into one central provider.
gollark: That's a good thing. Having your payment provider *also* keep your money is a problem.
