What confirmations really mean



A confirmation is not technical. It is the blockchain marking your transaction as checked and secure.

Your transaction enters a pool. A validator picks it and puts it in a block. That is the first confirmation. Every new block adds one more, which makes your transaction harder to reverse.

Think of your bank app. “Pending” is the mempool. “Approved” is the first confirmation. Each extra check after that is extra security.

Confirmations are the blockchain protecting your money, one block at a time.
