Title: Any SHA512 coins?
Post by: zero3112 on April 01, 2014, 10:11:13 PM
Is there such a thing as SHA512 coins?  Also isn't SHA512 still SHA2 not SHA3?  I have also seen SHA3 coins but what's the difference aren't they all the same thing there all SHA?

Some coins, such as Quark and those that use X11, have 512 bit hash values that are truncated to 256 bits.
