Transaction ID

Transaction malleability in cryptocurrency refers to the ability to alter transaction IDs without changing the actual transaction details, impacting tracking and confirmation.

A Transaction ID, often abbreviated as TxID, is a unique identifier assigned to each transaction on a blockchain. It is generated when a transaction is processed and recorded in the blockchain. This ID typically consists of a long string of alphanumeric characters.The primary purpose of a Transaction ID is to provide an easy way to track and verify transactions. Users can input a TxID into a blockchain explorer, a tool that displays the status of transactions, to check their details, such as the amount transferred, sender and recipient addresses, and the confirmation status.Transaction IDs enhance transparency, allowing anyone to verify that a transaction has taken place and to check its details. This feature is crucial for maintaining trust among users and ensuring the integrity of the entire system. In cases of disputes or errors, the TxID can serve as a reference point for resolution. Overall, it plays a vital role in the efficiency and reliability of transactions in blockchain networks.
