Hey guys

I have a question for you all

@selsta are u there

Is the Monero gui wallet on the computer encrypted by default ? If so what type of encryption is used ? SHA 256?

if you set a password then yes

selsta: are you sure about that?

about what? if you set a password then you can't access it without bruteforcing the password

selsta: Are you sure that the gui encrypts your wallet by default using SHA256 when you put a password

not sha256, i never claimed that

selsta: ok, so what does it use then

i think cryptonight, see monerodocs.org/proof-of-work/cryptonight

selsta: Is cryptonight good enough to not be cracked though?

if your password is secure enough to not get bruteforced then yes
