# RandomX
Hush Smart Chains support using RandomX as a Proof-Of-Work algorithm as of release 3.9.2 .
Hush Arrakis Chains support using RandomX as a Proof-Of-Work algorithm as of release 3.9.2 .
This means you can now launch a privacy coin with Hush tech that can be mined with a CPU
instead of requiring an ASIC or GPU. RandomX is the same algorithm that Monero (XMR) and
various other cryptocoins use. As far as we know, Hush Smart Chains are the first coins
various other cryptocoins use. As far as we know, Hush Arrakis Chains are the first coins
based on Zcash Protocol that can use the RandomX PoW algorithm. Many thanks to all the
people who helped make this possible.

This section is not required reading if you just want to use it as a PoW algorithm for an HSC. Here we will explain how the internals of RandomX works inside of the Hush codebase.
We use the official RandomX implementation from https://github.com/tevador/RandomX with custom configuration options. If some type of hardware is created to mine the XMR RandomX algorithm, it will not be compatible with the Hush RandomX algorithm. This is by design. All Hush Smart Chains use the same RandomX config options, so if a hardware device is created to mine one HSC that uses RandomX, it can be used to mine any HSC using RandomX. Every HSC with unique consensus parameters will start off with it's own unique key block with at least 9 bytes of entropy.

The source code of RandomX is embedded in the Hush source code at `./src/RandomX` and the configuration options used are at `./src/RandomX/src/configuration.h` .
