B. MD5
C. SHA-256
D. SHA-512
Answer:C
What hashing algorithm is used in blockchains.
A. LANMAN B. MD5 C. SHA-256 D. SHA-512
Explanation: Bitcoin and Ethereum use the SHA-256 hashing algorithm for their hashing needs. Keccack-256 algorithm is also used in the Ethereum blockchain. Hashing and cryptography(asymmetric) are what secure the blockchain and allow participants to trust the blockchain rather than banks. Between mathematical algorithms and the other option, the former serves best to secure funds.
