A mobile wallet doesn’t store the entire blockchain. How can you confirm that a transfer really made it into a block?
A Merkle tree is a tree-like structure that hashes large amounts of data in pairs, combining them level by level. The hash at the very top is called the Merkle root.
On platforms that provide proof of reserves, you can follow the official instructions and verify your balance yourself using a Merkle path.
The header of every $BTC block contains a Merkle root that summarizes all the transactions in that block. Currently: 83066.85.
