While the standardisation process for a # STARK-friendly hash function takes place—led by STARKware, who will produce a # detailed report with recommendations—we use `BLAKE2b-512` as a placeholder. # Specifically, we set `hash(x) := BLAKE2b-512(x)[0:32]` where the `BLAKE2b-512` # algorithm is defined in [RFC 7693](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7693) and # the input `x` is of type `bytes`. # # In our code base, to enable a smooth transition, we call this function # `eth2hash`, and it outputs a `Eth2Digest`.
