2.1 Transaction Lifecycle

Understanding how transactions move through the network is essential for developers.

When a user submits a transaction, it is first broadcast to the network and collected by Cluster nodes. These nodes include the transaction in a candidate block and propose it for validation.

Sync nodes then independently validate the block by executing all transactions and verifying state changes. Once validated, Vault nodes perform cryptographic checks to ensure integrity and correctness before the block is finalized.

This multi-stage validation process ensures that every transaction undergoes independent verification across multiple layers, reinforcing both security and consistency.
