Page	What you'll find
Transaction Format	In Ergo's protocol, a 'box' is a fundamental entity that encapsulates various types of information.
Merkle Tree	In the Ergo blockchain, the Transaction Merkle Tree is a vital data structure that ensures the integrity and authenticity of transactions within a block.
Signing	To initiate a transaction, a spending transaction \(tx\) is required as an input.
Validation	The validation of a single transaction is divided into two stages: stateless checks and stateful checks.
Data Inputs	ErgoScript's data inputs are a novel feature that enhances the traditional UTXO-based blockchain's functionality.
Fees	Each Ergo transaction is an atomic state transition operation, involving the destruction of one or more boxes from the state and the creation of new ones.
