I wonder if there's any way that the hash of a cipher text can be taken since hashes are not invertible (but encryption is).
Feels like it would be a really good idea to encrypt a hashed output (specifically ; not signatures though).
I only say what I said above because if the hash is being used to obfuscate / hide something, then the encryption will ensure that in the worst case scenario, someone will only find a hashed out / mixed version of what they're to decipher (and there's a considerable burden to be able to get to that point).
Need to Definitely Test for the AEAD Quality of This (perhaps if the hash was encrypted with XChacha20 - poly1305?)
Thinking that there's some version of this idea that ties into what I was thinking as it pertains to hash chains.

“To the extent it is used I fear it’s often for illicit finance. It’s an extremely inefficient way of conducting transactions, and the amount of energy that’s consumed in processing those transactions is staggering,” the former Fed chairwoman said. Yellen’s comments have been cited as a reason for bitcoin’s recent losses. However, Yellen’s assessment of bitcoin as a inefficient medium of exchange is an important point and one that has already been raised in the past by bitcoin bulls. Using a volatile asset in exchange for goods and services makes little sense if the asset can tumble 10% in a day, or surge 80% over the course of a two months as bitcoin has done in 2021, critics argue. To put a finer point on it, over the past 12 months bitcoin has registered 8 corrections, defined as a decline from a recent peak of at least 10% but not more than 20%, and two bear markets, which are defined as falls of 20% or more, according to Dow Jones Market Data.
Launched in 2013, Telegram allows users to broadcast messages to a following via “channels”, or create public and private groups that are simple for others to access. Users can also send and receive large data files, including text and zip files, directly via the app.The platform said it has more than 500m active users, and topped 1bn downloads in August, according to data from SensorTower.LibreCryptography from ua
