🗂️ Technical Concepts | Merkle Trees
· What it is: The Merkle tree is named after cryptographer Ralph Merkle. This structure was first proposed in the late 1970s.
· How to understand it: Exchanges also use Merkle trees to prove their reserves: the platform publishes a root hash, and each user can use their own Merkle path to verify whether their balance was included.
· Note: Data in light wallets depends on the nodes they connect to. For large incoming payments, you can cross-check them using several block explorers.
