In the code we have
04ffff001d0104455468652054696d65732030332f4a616e2f32303039204368616e63656c6c6f72206f6e206272696e6b206f66207365636f6e64206261696c6f757420666f722062616e6b73 which is a difficulty bits for message The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks can anyone provide a update what hashing or encoding is used to get that string? I used String str = "The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks"; String ss = BaseEncoding.base16().lowerCase().encode(str.getBytes())); and output I have 5468652054696d65732030332f4a616e2f32303039204368616e63656c6c6f72206f6e206272696e6b206f66207365636f6e64206261696c6f757420666f722062616e6b73 whereas in code it has extra "04ffff001d010445" I am struggling to find that but failed so far. A help will be very much appreciated and my job will be saved :-) This is the output when I am decoding the string in code via byte[] bytes = Utils.HEX.decode( "04ffff001d0104455468652054696d65732030332f4a616e2f32303039204368616e63656c6c6f72206f6e206272696e6b206f66207365636f6e64206261696c6f757420666f722062616e6b73"); String s = new String(bytes); Output is below: <https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-IH6fJkwGJI8/WukQLiC5wCI/AAAAAAAAEXY/JRTuXE4qKHIvVFSrv2b9-kDpnx2TuoW9ACLcBGAs/s1600/decoding.PNG> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "bitcoinj" group.
