# GenesisH0
A python script for creating the parameters required for a unique genesis block. SHA256/scrypt/X11/X13/X15.

### Dependencies
    sudo pip install scrypt construct==2.5.2

To create geneses based on X11 algorithm you will also need to install the [xcoin-hash](https://github.com/lhartikk/xcoin-hash) module. 
For X13 you will need the [x13_hash](https://github.com/sherlockcoin/X13-PythonHash) module and for X15 the [x15_hash](https://github.com/minings/x15_hash) module.
    
### Examples
Create the original genesis hash found in Bitcoin

    python genesis.py -z "The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks" -n 2083236893 -t 1231006505
Output:

    algorithm: sha256
    merkle hash: 4a5e1e4baab89f3a32518a88c31bc87f618f76673e2cc77ab2127b7afdeda33b
    pszTimestamp: The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks
