ALEXANDRIA, Va., Oct. 6 -- United States Patent no. 12,756,574, issued on Oct. 6, was assigned to Quantum Blockchain Technologies PLC (London).

"Message scheduling for cryptographic hashing" was invented by Rahul Naik (London).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "A method of performing cryptographic hashing when mining for Bitcoin comprises causing a message scheduler to calculate a set of partially-calculated input values for a SHA256 (e.g. SHA2560 424) cryptographic compression function using values which are based on invariable portions taken from an initial input message of the input messages (e.g. 418) to be hashed. For each subsequent input message of the input messages (e.g. 418) to be hashed...
