noun. A hashed address is a computer term referring to an encrypted or irreversible representation of an original address or value. It is generated using a hashing algorithm, which converts the input data into a fixed-length string of characters. This process is commonly used in computer science and cryptography for various purposes, such as securing passwords, verifying data integrity, and indexing data in hash tables. Once an address or value is hashed, it is challenging to reverse-engineer or retrieve the original input from the resulting hash. GPT3.5
