# Crypto transaction

## Definition

A crypto transaction is a signed instruction submitted to a blockchain network to transfer value or change blockchain state according to that network's rules.

## What it means in practice

Transactions can transfer native coins, tokens or interact with smart contracts. Once accepted and confirmed, reversal may be difficult or impossible without a new transaction.

## How this concept appears in Terenval Wallet

Terenval Wallet creates and signs transactions for supported Bitcoin, Ethereum and EVM/L2 networks while keeping the selected network context explicit.

**Important:** Verify destination, network, amount and fee before signing; blockchain confirmation does not mean the recipient or intent was correct.
