What is RIPEMD-160?
RIPEMD (RACE Integrity Primitives Evaluation Message Digest) is a family of cryptographic hash functions based on the design principles used in MD4. RIPEMD-160 is a 160-bit version, designed in the open academic community as an alternative to the NSA-designed SHA algorithms. It is widely used in systems like Bitcoin for address generation.
