Liquidation in a crypto lending protocol happens when your health factor falls below one, often after collateral prices drop or debt grows steadily.

A stablecoin issuer creates the coin and manages the reserves behind it. It can freeze coins, and US oversight depends on its legal structure and charter.

Each deposit address is labeled for one network, so the same coin can need a different address per network. Match the network name before you send.

A native coin runs on its own blockchain, while a token is built on another chain. That shapes the network fees people pay and the risks they carry.
By Vahe HakobyanRead
You verify a token contract address by matching it to the project's verified website and official social accounts, then checking the network in your wallet.

A liquidity pool is a smart contract that prices swaps with a formula, and providers earn a share of trading fees. You need both tokens and gas.

Decentralized finance is blockchain software that replaces banks with smart contracts. You connect a wallet and usually keep control of your own keys.
By Vahe HakobyanRead
Stablecoin transfers are tracked on-chain as public transactions on the network used. You can find one with a transaction hash in a block explorer.

A network deposit suspension pauses deposits, and withdrawals may pause too. Your balance usually stays; it is not a freeze of your account.

A wrapped Bitcoin token is a blockchain token on another network that tracks BTC's price. You get it by sending BTC to a custodian or bridge.

Blockchain throughput is how many transactions a network processes in a unit of time. It differs from latency and depends on block size and consensus.
By Vahe HakobyanRead
Fair speed comparison uses time to finality, not advertised TPS. Match transaction type and network load, then check mainnet and verify timestamps.
By Vahe HakobyanRead
To add a network to a wallet safely, enter the official name, RPC URL, chain ID, ticker, and explorer, then test the network with a small transaction.
By Vahe HakobyanRead
An EVM-compatible chain runs Ethereum smart contracts, but it is a separate network. You add it to a wallet and check the network before you send assets.
By Vahe HakobyanRead
Token decimals set how many decimal places a token's smallest unit uses, so wallets and exchanges can show and send the right amount. They are fixed.

Cross-chain bridges can lose funds to bugs, validator attacks, or stolen keys, and bridged tokens are IOUs. No FDIC or SIPC insurance covers losses.
By Vahe HakobyanRead
A blockchain bridge locks or burns tokens on one chain and mints or releases them on another. You connect a wallet, approve an amount and track two chains.

An optimistic rollup is an Ethereum scaling network that assumes transactions are valid and checks them if challenged. Batches post to Ethereum.
By Vahe HakobyanRead
A zero-knowledge rollup batches transactions and proves them valid to Ethereum. It aims to cut fees while Ethereum checks the validity proof.
By Vahe HakobyanRead
A rollup is a scaling network that runs transactions off Ethereum and settles them there. It batches activity to cut congestion on the mainnet.
