Checking MD5 of blockchain contracts

Solidgroup
Apr 10, 2021

MD5 (technically called MD5 Message-Digest Algorithm) is a cryptographic hash function whose main purpose is to verify that a file has been unaltered. Instead of confirming that two sets of data are identical by comparing the raw data, MD5 does this by producing a checksum on both sets and then comparing the checksums to verify that they’re the same.

How to get the MD5 of a contract?

  1. Go to the contract on Etherscan or Bscscan.

In our tutorial https://etherscan.io/address/0xc02aaa39b223fe8d0a0e5c4f27ead9083c756cc2#code

2. Press Contract Tab

3. Press this icon

4. Go to https://www.md5hashgenerator.com/

This website generates md5 hash of a string.

5. Paste the code (Ctrl + V) to the input box

6.

7. Press Generate

8. Get the hash!

⚠️⚠️If the hash is different than the one we posted, contact @solid_1 on telegram for clarification!
