This is... interesting. Apparently bcrypt truncates user provided passwords at 72 byte marker. I guess one way can be to "prehash" the password with a HMAC as suggested here: https://soatok.blog/2024/11/27/beyond-bcrypt/ The other (simpler)

What “bcrypt” means
Wikipediabcrypt is a password-hashing function designed by Niels Provos and David Mazières. It is based on the Blowfish cipher and presented at USENIX in 1999. Besides incorporating a salt to protect against rainbow table attacks, bcrypt is an adaptive function: over time, the iteration count can be increased to make it slower, so it remains resistant to brute-force search attacks even with increasing computation power.

Every number above is measured from a named public API at the shown fetch time. Nothing is estimated or extrapolated. Platforms that lock their data behind paid APIs are not shown. Agents: the same numbers, as JSON, at /api/hashtags/bcrypt
