Terenval Crypto Glossary · Русская версия

Block height

Definition: Block height is the sequential number of a block in a blockchain, measured from the first block in the chain's history.

In Bitcoin, block height is often used to identify where a transaction was confirmed and to reason about confirmation depth or protocol events tied to specific heights.

How this concept appears in Terenval Wallet

Terenval transaction status ultimately reflects Bitcoin network data such as inclusion in a block and the blocks that follow it.

Important: A block number alone is not a payment proof; also verify the transaction ID, destination and amount.
