  • Asking the site to break encryption for you is out of scope. However, you can use CyberChef to figure out a bit about it. From there, you can work on it yourself. Here's what I used: https://gchq.github.io/CyberChef/#recipe=From_Base64(%27A-Za-z0-9%2B/%3D%27,true)Entropy(%27Shannon%20scale%27)&input=QjY1cWRqWWlNV3ppek1vbDdCbUc0a25LaDRPQXU5MDMza1NBUGNDSzVDcz0 – John Deters Jan 11 '20 at 06:21
  • In this specific case this looks like a base64 encoded. Decoding it results in a 32 byte (256 bit) binary which for example could be SHA-256. Of course it could also be anything else with SHA-256 as the last round, SHA-512 cut to 256 bit, two different MD5 concatenated, ... – Steffen Ullrich Jan 11 '20 at 06:39
