      Correct but you also dont want an encrypted password. You want a hashed password.

        this is true, and the name bcrypt can be misleading to non experts. i don’t blame them for getting this wrong in a pr statement 🤷‍♀️

    bcrypt… with how many iterations? seems like an important detail

      I’m willing to give him a pass on that one since they’re probably worried that their General audience will understand the word encrypted but not understand the word hashed

        Hey, I was born in the early 2000s and Club Penguin was huge when I was a kid! Everyone my age knows about it.
