Bitcoin and the Ultimate Hash Value
Introduction. As you're probably already aware, the power of Bitcoin boils down to cryptography. Using a system of public and private keys, you can track every users' finances without revealing his or her identity. Security and privacy: the best of both worlds. What you might be less familiar with is called hashing, the specific mathematical technique employed. It takes data of any size and converts it to a numerical value of fixed length-the hash. The public keys listed on the Bitcoin blockchain are hashed from private keys, as are the signatures needed to verify transactions in the....
