    BYDFi, as a decentralized exchange, also utilizes hash functions in the context of cryptocurrency. Hash functions are used to generate unique identifiers for each transaction and to ensure the integrity of the exchange's order book. The hash values of the order book are regularly checked to detect any unauthorized changes. This helps to maintain the transparency and security of the exchange's trading activities.
