Ask HN: Pseudocode for the Bitcoin Mining Algorithm?
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6765619I get the general gist of what problem must be solved for bitcoin mining, namely wanting to find a nonce that pairs with your data to result in a hash with x leading zeros where x is the current difficulty level.
However, I'm having trouble finding the exact algorithm, which uses double SHA-256 encryption, etc.
Can someone give or point me to the full pseudo code for the mining algorithm?
