Title: By what formula is the genesis-hash calculated? Post by: Many Coins on February 16, 2018, 06:36:09 PM Hello!
Tell me please: by what formula is the genesis-hash calculated? Code: uint256 hashGenesisBlock("0x12a765e31ffd4059bada1e25190f6e98c99d9714d334efa41a195a7e7e04bfe2");That is: Code: 0x12a765e31ffd4059bada1e25190f6e98c99d9714d334efa41a195a7e7e04bfe2 what? :) (A+B)*C = 0x12a765e31ffd4059bada1e25190f6e98c99d9714d334efa41a195a7e7e04bfe2? 8) I understand that this is a hash from something :) But from what? Thank you. Title: Re: By what formula is the genesis-hash calculated? Post by: achow101 on February 16, 2018, 09:07:51 PM It's the hash of the genesis block. The genesis blocks parameters can be found in chainparams.cpp. It is then serialized and hashed.

printf("calc new genesis block\n"); printf("hashMerkleRoot %s\n", genesis.hashMerkleRoot.ToString().c_str()); printf("bnProofOfWorkLimit 0x%x\n", bnProofOfWorkLimit.GetCompact()); printf("genesis.nBits 0x%x\n", genesis.nBits); for (genesis.nNonce = 0; ; genesis.nNonce++) { hashGenesisBlock = genesis.GetHash(); if (hashGenesisBlock <= bnProofOfWorkLimit.getuint256()) break; } printf("hashGenesisBlock %s\n", hashGenesisBlock.ToString().c_str()); printf("genesis.nNonce %d\n", genesis.nNonce); Title: Re: By what formula is the genesis-hash calculated?
