In a blockchain network, whenever you initiate a transfer, the system attaches a special serial number to this transaction; when miners attempt to create a new block, they are also frantically searching for a "lucky number." These two seemingly different behaviors actually rely on the same core concept: Nonce.
Although it is just a simple number, it directly affects whether a transaction can be successfully sent and whether a new Block can be smoothly created. It is the nameless guardian of order and security in the crypto world.
01 Basic Concepts
In the context of cryptocurrency and blockchain, the term Nonce has a clear definition. It is a "number used once" in a specific situation.
You can think of it as a unique ticket number or a one-time password. This simple design is how Blockchain achieves decentralized trust and ensures that data does not

As of December 23, the trading price of IOTA on Gate is around $0.08414, which represents a significant pullback from its historical peak of $5.25, but the underlying Tangle technology is building the infrastructure for the machine economy.
01 Technical Cornerstone
IOTA stands out in the crypto world as it fundamentally abandons traditional blockchain architecture, opting for a new distributed ledger technology called Tangle.
Unlike the chain structure of blockchain and the miner verification mechanism, Tangle is a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG). In this system, every time a new transaction is initiated, it requires the validation of the previous two transactions. This design allows the speed of network transactions to increase with the number of users, theoretically avoiding network congestion and high fees.
The original intention of IOTA was to solve the Internet of Things.
