#OneMinuteBlockchain Five Requirements of a Cryptographic Hash Function

In this video of our #OneMinuteBlockchain series, we take a look at the five key requirements of a good cryptographic hash function. Hash Cryptography is an essential pillar of blockchains. Every block in a blockchain is linked to the previous block with by storing the hash of the previous block in its block data. Different blockchains use different cryptographic hash functions. For example, the Bitcoin Blockchain uses the SHA-256 cryptographic hash function and the Ethereum Blockchain uses the Ethash/keccak function.
