Algorithm Options Explained for HashCash
- Extension Page: Captcha - HashCash
The Captcha - HashCash plugin (v5.4.1+) for Joomla provides five hashing algorithms to power its invisible proof-of-work (PoW) system. This privacy-focused tool blocks bots and spam on forms such as contact pages, registrations, and comments. It avoids visible puzzles or third-party trackers. The plugin runs computations in the user's browser using JavaScript and the Web Crypto API. Humans experience smooth interactions. Automated attacks face high costs.
