Here's the relevant code from `bigchaindb/bigchaindb/common/crypto.py`

**Important**: Since selecting the Keccak hashing algorithm for SHA-3 in 2012, NIST [released a new version](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SHA-3#cite_note-14) of the hash using the same algorithm but slightly different parameters. As of version 0.9, BigchainDB is using the latest version. See below for an example output of the hash function.
