🗒️ Today’s topic: Merkle trees
Ethereum uses an improved Merkle Patricia Trie to record account states, transactions, and receipts, with the corresponding root hash stored in the block header.
On platforms that offer proof of reserves, you can follow the official instructions to verify your balance yourself using a Merkle path.
Don’t put all your funds into a single project.
The header of every block $BTC records a Merkle root that summarizes all the transactions in that block.
