96 Bits of Security?
The accepted cryptographic practice is really 128 bits, so like SHA-256, 256 means it's giving you 128 bits of security. But the way fried based projects tend to be using that means there are certain conjectures that basically assuming known attacks on fire optimal when they sell. In order to succeed with probability close to one, you need to do like two to the 96 hash evaluations to find a committing proof of a false statement. So I don't think 100 bits is attackable, but someone could come up with a better attack or, you know, who knows.
