Merkle Tree

1 min readGlossary

A Merkle tree is a cryptographic structure used to publish a large eligibility list without storing every entry on-chain. The project publishes a Merkle root in a smart contract; each user proves their eligibility with a small Merkle proof. This approach reduces on-chain costs while keeping claims verifiable.

Most users never see the Merkle data directly because the checker generates it. But understanding the concept helps you evaluate legitimacy: reputable projects often publish their Merkle lists, provide open-source tooling, and let users verify allocations independently.

In Coins Farm terms, Merkle distribution is a public “harvest ledger” where every eligible farmer has an entry, and the contract checks your receipt before paying out. The risk isn’t the Merkle math-the risk is phishing sites that trick you into signing malicious approvals. Use official links and treat claim pages like vault doors: verify before you enter. Keep it legit: avoid automation, account selling, and gray-market trading that can lead to scams or bans.
