Chaotic hash functions represent a cutting‐edge convergence between nonlinear dynamics and cryptographic science. These functions employ chaotic maps—mathematical systems that exhibit extreme ...

In this episode of “Bitcoin, Explained,” hosts Aaron van Wirdum and Sjors Provoost go back to Bitcoin basics. They explain one of the most fundamental building blocks in all of Bitcoin: hash functions ...

RSA and hashing are two cryptographic functions that are widely used together. RSA provides the encryption using a public and private key, and hashing creates a binary fingerprint. For example, in a ...

The number of cryptographic hashes per second (H/s) a computer executes for blockchain mining such as Bitcoin. A hash rate may refer to computations in a single GPU in one computer, a crypto mining ...
