Yeah, the HASH is of a ZIP file already containing the Nesting TXT files.
The Hash would just be of that ONE ZIP file.

This is how the file looks like, repeated quite a lot times over.

reden, I found there are 10^125 quantum states in the observable Universe. Could we have a HASH size that would represent this number, or around it? That would guarantee uniqueness to the HASH function.

That would guarantee uniqueness to the HASH function. The hash function I am using is SHA256, which uses 256 bits. You mean an higher one... hmmmm which could contain that? Hmmmmm |

SHA256 contains 2^64 bits, so 2.3 exabytes or 1.8446744e+19.
That is 1+19 zeros.
It's not enough according to your info.

SHA512 contains 2^128 bits, so 3.4028237e+38.
Still not enough.

SHA-1024 or 2048 if they existed.
2048 should have 1+154.
2^512 seems to be the number to aim for.

No real worries, but how fast is the largest SHA?
