Topic: By what formula is the genesis-hash calculated? (Read 181 times)
Thank you. I'll try to figure it out
This:
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);
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);
It's the hash of the genesis block. The genesis blocks parameters can be found in chainparams.cpp. It is then serialized and hashed.
Hello!
Tell me please: by what formula is the genesis-hash calculated?
That is:
what?
(A+B)*C = 0x12a765e31ffd4059bada1e25190f6e98c99d9714d334efa41a195a7e7e04bfe2?
I understand that this is a hash from something But from what?
Thank you.
