Could you please explain what a Bitcoin hash key is, and how does it play a crucial role in the security and functionality of the Bitcoin network? I understand that it's somehow related to cryptography, but I'm not entirely clear on how it specifically works within the blockchain technology. Could you elaborate on the process of generating a hash key, and how it helps to verify transactions and maintain the integrity of the ledger?
