How to use:
Simply input the plaintext you would like to hash into the top box and an output will appear in the box below; it contains the hash value made with a bit length the same as the number in the algorithm name, e.g. SHA-256 produces a hash with a bit-length of 256.
The hash produced here is in the form of hexadecimal. Another way to find the bit-length of the hash is by going from hexadecimals to bits. The conversions are as follows:
1 hexadecimal character = 4 bits
1 base64 character = 6 bits
1 text character = 8 bits
RIPEMD160
Information
RIPEMD is a family of cryptographic hash functions developed in 1992 and 1996. There are five functions in the family: RIPEMD, RIPEMD-128, RIPEMD-160, RIPEMD-256, and RIPEMD-320, of which RIPEMD-160 is the most common.
It is intended to be used as a secure replacement for the 128-bit hash functions MD4, MD5, and RIPEMD and has the same uses as the SHA family.
