Pre-Commit Validation

Definition

Pre-commit validation refers to a preliminary check of transactions or data before they are permanently recorded on a blockchain. This process involves verifying the syntax, semantics, and adherence to protocol rules of a proposed block or transaction prior to its final inclusion in the ledger. It aims to filter out invalid or malicious submissions early, reducing computational waste and improving network efficiency. This early verification step contributes to overall system integrity and security.
