http://php.net/manua...ssword-hash.php shows a simple example to hash a password using BCRYPT. I've read different posts recommending CHAR(60), BINARY(60), BINARY, and even BINARY(40).
What are the pros and cons of using one datatype over another?
<?php
/**
* In this case, we want to increase the default cost for BCRYPT to 12.
* Note that we also switched to BCRYPT, which will always be 60 characters.
*/
$options = [
'cost' => 12,
];
echo password_hash("rasmuslerdorf", PASSWORD_BCRYPT, $options)."\n";
?>
