Block Delay Execution is a protocol feature that postpones the final confirmation or processing of a transaction until a predetermined number of subsequent blocks have been added to the blockchain. This mechanism introduces a time interval between a transaction’s submission and its immutable recording on the ledger. The delay offers a window during which the transaction might be reviewed or potentially canceled under specific network rules.

News often highlights its application in mitigating certain types of front-running attacks or enabling community-driven decisions to modify or halt pending operations. Its implementation seeks to provide an additional layer of security and flexibility.
