1-way Hashing - Applications in DeFi

Trusting hardness of problems to keep your crpto safe It’s widely known that 1-way hash functions , particularly SHA-256 , are the cornerstone of modern cryptography. What is a 1-way hash function? A 1-way hash function is a function H(x) where given H(x), finding a corresponding x (even if it’s not unique) is computationally infeasible, requiring brute force on the order of ~2^256 for SHA-256…
