Hash Game

Hash Game allows you to push your hardware and software ideas to the limit and set new records in the world of hashing. All you have to do is find a message m such that hash(m) is very small or very large. Being able to efficiently produce such hashes would have a huge impact on both security[1] and proof-of-work based cryptocurrencies[2], such as Bitcoin.
This page is heavly inspired by this page which is sadly no longer available. All the old records have been imported.

Hashing algorithm:
Hashing game:
  • Min: Find the smallest hash.
  • Max: Find the largest hash.
  • Popcount Min: Find the hash with fewest 1's in the binary representation.
  • Popcount Max: Find the hash with most 1's in the binary representation.
  • Bytesum Min: Find the hash with smallest bytesum.
  • Bytesum Max: Find the hash with largest bytesum.

Records

2022-08-19 - A few days ago someone ran an Acunetix scan of my website and to my surprise, it got
some nice hash records. How? Well, apparently md5(array()) is 0 in PHP, which is great for any
min-hash game. This is an instance of type juggling, which can lead to some deadly bugs.
Thanks to penguinkeeper for reporting the fact that some bad records had been added!
Also, great job in the ripemd160 category!

2022-06-11 - Wow, good job SimonGoater owning the sha512 category, and a large part of ripemd160 too!
Also interesting to see only one "ancient" record from the old website left to beat, md5-max by Jiyong Youn.
