This project is a C# implementation of original Blake. BLAKE is a cryptographic hash function based on Daniel J. Bernstein's ChaCha stream cipher, but a permuted copy of the input block. BLAKE was submitted to the NIST hash function competition as a proposal for next SHA-3 algorithm.
Classes Blake256 & Blake512 implement standard System.Security.Cryptography.HashAlgorithm.
using var algo = new Blake256();
var hash = algo.ComputeHash("Hello, world");
var hashString = string.Concat(hash.Select(t => t.ToString("x2")));
