Summary

A unique identifier assigned to each transaction on a blockchain.

Detailed Description

A Transaction ID (TxID) is a string of alphanumeric characters that identifies a specific transaction on the blockchain. When a transaction is created and included in a block, it is hashed to produce a unique transaction ID, which can be used to reference the transaction in the blockchain network. This ID allows users to track the status of their transactions, verify their authenticity, and search for specific transactions across blockchain explorers.
