Protocol functionality refers to the specific operations, capabilities, and rules that define how a blockchain network or decentralized application operates. This includes its transaction processing, smart contract execution, consensus mechanisms, and interoperability features. It describes the technical specifications that govern interactions within the system. Understanding this is essential for assessing a network’s utility and performance.
Context
