HashBlobs stored in little endian and rendered in big endian format for 160-bit (Hash160) and 256-bit width (Hash256) - Unsigned 256-bit arithmetic (
Arith256) with consensus-compatible behavior (e.g. wrapping operators) - Compact representation of difficulty targets (
CompactTarget) and bidirectional conversion withArith256
