Episode description

Blake2b is a cryptographic hash function based on the Blake algorithm. To be precise, Blake2b is a modified version of Blake. Designed by Jean-Philippe Aumasson, Luca Henzen, Willi Meier, and Raphael C.-W. Phan, Blake2 was considered a potential alternative to MD5 and the SHA series algorithms as it aims to provide enhanced security and improved efficiency.

Blake2b depends on the algorithm borrowed from the ChaCha stream cipher, which was designed by Daniel J. Bernstein. Let’s explore the Blake2b algorithm more, its characteristics, and the top Blake2b mineable coins in detail.
