hashcash 1.22 Denial-of-service countermeasure
Hashcash is a proof-of-work algorithm, which has been used as a denial-of-service countermeasure technique in a number of systems.
A hashcash stamp constitutes a proof-of-work which takes a parametrizable amount of work to compute for the sender. The recipient can verify received hashcash stamps efficiently.
This package contains a command-line tool for computing and verifying hashcash stamps.
