ZelHash (FLUX) An ASIC/FPGA-Resistant Equihash Modification

In this episode, we dive into the ZelHash Whitepaper, which presents ZelHash, a proof-of-work (PoW) algorithm designed to provide ASIC/FPGA resistance for the Zel cryptocurrency. Based on the Equihash 125/4 algorithm, ZelHash introduces innovative modifications that mitigate potential hardware advantages, ensuring a level playing field for GPU miners. We’ll explore its key features, such as the integration of blocking factors and memory-intensive adjustments, which balance compute and memory trade-offs while enhancing energy efficiency. Tune in to discover how ZelHash is redefining PoW mining with fairness, security, and decentralization at its core.
