Who said they hashed it? The correct answer is a 256-bit value, and you're trying to guess any string that hashes to that value. Nothing requires that OP generated that value by hashing a string though...

Fair point, I’m just hoping that the author starts from something that could actually be input as an answer (and therefore hashes it at least once).
