Here’s the type of text my encryption function throws out: 
I generated several strings and they’re never bigger than 50 characters, but I would like to give it 75 characters in mysql. I tried using varchar, but the string gets cut off because it doesn’t like some characters. Any idea what data type I should use?
If it’s binary data (it looks like it is), you probably should store it in a
BLOB.
