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.

Merkle trees are useful in distributed systems where the same data should exist in multiple places. It can be used to check inconsistencies. And therefore, Merkle-trees find their profound use in bitcoin and blockchain as well.
