Validator Vote
A validator vote is a signed consensus message expressing support for a block, checkpoint, fork, or protocol decision under defined voting rules.…
Validator Withdrawal
A validator withdrawal is a protocol-authorized transfer of staking rewards or principal from a proof-of-stake validator balance to its configured withdrawal destination.…
Validity Rollup
A validity rollup executes transactions outside a settlement chain and submits cryptographic proofs that accepted state transitions follow the encoded rules. It…
Versioned Transaction
A versioned transaction carries an explicit format version so a blockchain can add features while preserving deterministic decoding of older transactions. On…
Vote Account
A vote account is a Solana on-chain account that records validator voting state, authorized voters, commission, credits, and reward history. Delegated stake…
Vote Transaction
A vote transaction carries a validator's signed consensus vote on-chain or through the network so fork choice, finality, and rewards can process…
XRP Address
An XRP Ledger address identifies an account using a checksummed base58 encoding, with optional X-address formatting to include a destination tag. An…
Zero Address
A zero address is a protocol-specific all-zero or reserved address commonly used as a null value, burn destination, or sentinel in smart…
Zero-Knowledge Rollup
A zero-knowledge rollup is a validity-rollup design that batches execution outside a settlement chain and submits cryptographic proofs of correct state transitions.…
ZK Bridge
A ZK bridge verifies cross-chain state or messages using succinct cryptographic proofs instead of relying solely on a fixed signer committee. Some…
ZK Light Client
A ZK light client verifies a succinct proof of another chain's consensus and state transitions instead of processing every header or validator…
ZK Rollup
ZK Rollup is the common industry shorthand for a zero-knowledge or validity-proof rollup that executes transactions away from a settlement chain and…
ZK Validity Proof
A ZK validity proof succinctly demonstrates that a computation or state transition satisfies specified constraints without revealing all private witness data. The…
zkSync Network
The ZKsync Network is an ecosystem of validity-proof rollups and validiums built with ZK Stack and connected through Ethereum-based settlement and interoperability.…
