Merkleization and Hash Root Tree - A Deep Dive into SSZ Merkleization in Ethereum

In Ethereum consensus mechanism, it’s critical for all participating nodes to agree on the state of the system consistently and efficiently. The Simple Serialize (SSZ) framework facilitates this through Merkleization, a process that transforms serialized data into a Merkle tree structure. This wiki page discusses the intricacies of Merkleization...
