Tw, hashing and encryption are not the same thing. With encryption, there is a key with which something can be decrypted. Hashing is one way, no key, isn't reversible. A hashing result can't be read by humans. Apples and oranges.

The term "reverse hash" is a misnomer applied to the only option which is a brute force attack.

Did that encryption algorithm work? Trying to reserve [sic] the hash using brute force takes long. Reversing the hash to check it is fast.
Using "encryption" algorithm interchangeably with "hashing" is proof positive that you're out of your depth. The terms are mutually exclusive. I see you're waiting for someone else to do your research into this subject for you too. You're way out of touch.
