What are Merkle trees useful for, and why do blocks use them? Many people can't answer! A Bitcoin block header is only 80 bytes in total, and includes the Merkle root of every transaction in the block. The beauty of a Merkle tree is that a single short root hash can “lock in” thousands of transactions, and any change to even one transaction will be detected. Market conditions are always uncertain, so decide in advance what you’ll do if your judgment turns out to be wrong. $BTC 81579.78(-0.9%)

🔥 Essential blockchain knowledge: Proof of Reserves A Proof of Reserves only shows how reserves covered user balances at the time of the snapshot. It does not fully reflect the platform’s other liabilities or overall operating conditions. When reading a reserve report, pay attention to the snapshot date and which currencies are covered. Don’t just look at the overall reserve ratio. In Binance’s Proof of Reserves, users can independently verify whether assets such as $BNB in their accounts are included. Currently, 727.46.
