Question

What is the previous block hash of block 4390176 in Ethereum Blockchain

Comments

Hey, @Dinesh,

A hash pointer is similar to a pointer, but instead of just containing the address of the previous block it also contains the hash of the data inside the previous block. This one small tweak is what makes blockchains so amazingly reliable and trailblazing.

I still don't know the previous blockchain hash address

Hi, @There,

You need to compute it since every miner has the previous block stored. Usually the value that is used is the hash of the previous block header since it contains all the information required to detect changes in the block.
