Title: Re: bitcoin algorithm is sha256 or sha256d？ Post by: aleksej996 on December 22, 2017, 08:41:10 PM so which algorithm miner required for solo mining sha256d is the answer. To save others time searching for what sha256d is, it is just sha256 done twice, so "d" probably stands for "double". Bitcoin PoW algorithm is double sha256, just like it uses double sha256 for computing transaction hashes. |
