It uses the Laravel `Hash::make()` method internally to generate hash. _Note: It's advised to use Eloquent's [`$hidden`](https://laravel.com/docs/5.2/eloquent-serialization#hiding-attributes-from-json) attribute so the password, even hashed, won't come out that easily if you're building an API or similar :)_
