@prologic Never heard of that one. The recommendation to use parts of this familiy in crypto currencies makes me a bit suspicious, though.
@prologic I read it in the German wikipedia article. Search for "currenc" in the author's internet draft:
> Argon2d uses data-dependent memory access, which makes it suitable for cryptocurrencies and proof-of-work applications with no threats from side-channel timing attacks.

And:
> These settings are more typical for backend servers and cryptocurrency minings. For practice we suggest the following settings:

In the wikipedia article I read it more like a recommendation, but the original sounds in fact not *that* bad. Still, to me, that is not confidence-inspiring. I did not read the entire article, just quoted out of context. :-)*
