What is a Merkle-tree?
A Merkle tree, commonly referred to as a Hash tree, is a type of data structure used for data synchronization and verification. It is a tree data structure where each non-leaf node is a hash of its child nodes. It maintains data integrity and uses hash functions for this purpose.
