  3. Example : ./mining_simulator 4 20

Features

  1. Has an option to display the blocks.
  2. Displays number of tries to mine each block.
  3. Currently using SHA256 single hashing algorithm.
  4. Difficulty level is defined by the prefix number of zeroes in the hash.
  5. Proof of Work Implemented as the Consensus Algorithm.
  6. Merkle Trees implemented
