(I assume you don't care about 12 bytes but rather\nthose 4 bytes.)\n\nThis does not work. All it does is adding another computational step before\nyou can check for a collision in those 4 bytes. It makes finding a\ncollision only marginally harder.\n\nOn Wed, May 11, 2016 at 7:28 AM, Luke Dashjr via bitcoin-dev \u003c\nbitcoin-dev at lists.linuxfoundation.org\u003e wrote:\n\n\u003e On Wednesday, May 11, 2016 12:20:55 PM Sergio Demian Lerner via bitcoin-dev\n\u003e wrote:\n\u003e \u003e On Tue, May 10, 2016 at 6:43 PM, Sergio Demian Lerner \u003c\n\u003e \u003e sergio.d.lerner at gmail.com\u003e wrote:\n\u003e \u003e \u003e You can find it here:\n\u003e \u003e \u003e\n\u003e https://bitslog.wordpress.com/2014/03/18/the-re-design-of-the-bitcoin-blo\n\u003e \u003e \u003e ck-header/\n\u003e \u003e \u003e\n\u003e \u003e \u003e Basically, the idea is to put in the first 64 bytes a 4 byte hash of\n\u003e the\n\u003e \u003e \u003e second 64-byte chunk.
