Used to calculate the difficulty target of messages accepted by this node.
For example the value 6 can be encoded with one byte therefore a varint that uses three bytes to encode the value 6 is malformed and the decoding task must be aborted. Varints MUST use the minimum possible number of bytes to encode a value. Variable length integers always precede an array/vector of a type of data that may vary in length. Integer can be encoded depending on the represented value to save space. Some clients include a sanity-check to avoid processing messages which are larger than this. Because of other restrictions, there is no reason why this length would ever be larger than 1600003 bytes. Magic value indicating message origin network, and used to seek to next message when stream state is unknownĪSCII string identifying the packet content, NULL padded (non-NULL padding results in packet rejected) Most of the time SHA-512 hashes are used, however RIPEMD-160 is also used when creating an address.Ī double-round of SHA-512 is used for the Proof Of Work.
