The cryptography world has been buzzing with the news that researchers at Google and CWI Amsterdam have succeeded in successfully generating a 'hash collision' for two different documents using the SHA1 encryption algorithm, rendering the algorithm 'broken' according to cryptographic standards.
SHA-1 is broken. It’s been expected for a long time, now it’s finally happened: the research team from Marc Stevens at CWI Amsterdam teamed up with Google to create two files with the same SHA-1 hash.Hash functions like SHA-1 are an important building block of almost all cryptographic protocols.

Above all, the difference is how long it takes to crack with specific hardware, whether it takes several months or a few seconds. With good password hashing schemes like Argon2 or Scrypt, cracking takes the longest, with SHA1 or MD5 the shortest. Google and Dutch Researchers Demonstrate Broken SHA-1 Web
In cryptography, why are MD5 and SHA1 called broken
Kind of! Sucessfull collision attacks have been performed. @isxbrokenyet Exploit Fully Breaks SHA-1, Lowers the Attack Bar | Threatpost
