What is Understanding Cryptographic Hashing about?
This document discusses cryptographic hashing, which is important for blockchain technologies. It explains that hash functions should be collision-resistant, hiding, and puzzle-friendly. A bad hash function is provided as an example that is not cryptographic since it is easy to find collisions and determine inputs from outputs. Cryptographic hash functions like SHA-256 are better since they are not known to have shortcuts and require brute force to find collisions or solve hash-based puzzles.
