Definition ∞ Single block execution refers to the processing and finalization of a transaction or set of transactions within a single block on a blockchain. This means the operation is confirmed and irreversible once that specific block is added to the chain. It provides immediate finality for transactions, reducing latency and increasing certainty. This method is important for time-sensitive operations and user experience.
Context ∞ The efficiency and security of single block execution are key topics in discussions about blockchain scalability and transaction finality. Debates often compare different consensus mechanisms and their ability to achieve rapid, secure finality. Innovations in this area aim to enhance the performance of decentralized networks.
