Key Terms

layer 2 technical
Layer 2 is a secondary system built on top of a blockchain that handles transactions or computations off the main ledger to make the network faster and cheaper, like adding express lanes beside a busy highway so cars move more smoothly without rebuilding the road. For investors, layer 2 matters because it can increase real-world use, lower user fees, and change demand for tokens or services tied to the underlying blockchain, affecting project value and adoption risk.
erc-20 technical
An ERC-20 token is a type of digital asset created to a shared set of technical rules on the Ethereum blockchain, so wallets, exchanges and apps can recognize, send and receive it the same way. Think of it like a common electrical socket that lets many different devices plug in without custom adapters. For investors this matters because the standard boosts ease of trading and integration across platforms, improving liquidity and accessibility while concentrating risks in the token’s smart contract and the Ethereum network.
multi-signature technical
A multi-signature arrangement requires more than one authorized person to approve a financial action—such as moving funds, signing a contract, or changing account settings—before it can proceed. Think of it like a safe that needs multiple keys turned at once: it reduces the risk that a single person can steal money or make unilateral decisions, strengthening controls and investor protection, though it can also slow approval speed and add administrative steps.
smart contracts technical
Self-executing digital agreements whose terms are written as code and stored on a distributed ledger so they run automatically when preset conditions are met — like a vending machine that releases a snack only after you insert the right coins. Investors care because smart contracts can speed up transactions, cut middlemen, reduce errors and fraud, and create new ways to issue, trade or enforce financial assets, which affects costs, risk and regulatory oversight.
mainnet technical
The mainnet is the live, operational blockchain where real tokens, transactions, and smart contracts run and have actual economic value. Think of it as the public road where vehicles carry customers and goods rather than a private test track; for investors, a project launching or migrating to mainnet signals higher maturity, real usage, and exposure to operational risks, token supply changes, and network security that can affect value.
tokenized real-world assets financial
Tokenized real-world assets are physical or financial items — such as real estate, bonds, art, or commodities — represented by digital tokens on a secure online ledger, enabling ownership to be divided into small, tradable pieces. For investors this can mean easier buying and selling, lower minimum investments and faster settlement, but it also introduces technology, market and legal risks, so it's like turning a house into many tradeable shares with new rules and costs to consider.
