Blockchains
A blockchain is a highly secure and decentralized network that allows people to store data, exchange value, and record transaction activity in a shared ledger that is not controlled by any central authority.[1]
Bridging assets
REVISE To transfer assets from Ethereum to BNB Chain you will need to interact with the Binance Bridge. This is a contract that will take custody of your assets on the Ethereum side and, after a bit of a delay, create a version of that asset on the Binance side.
You might think about this as a little like using tokens in an arcade. You give the arcade employee (bridge contract) your money (ETH) and in turn, they create tokens (ETH BEP-20, A BEP-20 version of ETH) to use within the arcade (BNB Chain). From there you can use the tokens (ETH BEP-20) while you are in the arcade. If you would like to leave you can give your tokens (ETH BEP-20) back to the employee (bridge contract) and they will destroy or burn the tokens (ETH BEP-20). Then they’ll give you back the money (ETH) for the tokens (ETH BEP-20). [2]

Deviation threshold
A new data aggregation round starts when a Chainlink node identifies that an off-chain data value deviates by more than the defined deviation threshold from its on-chain value. ---_
DLT
DONs
Each DON is customizable, empowering users to pick specific node operators and data sources, the level of decentralization, the type of computation performed, the update frequency, the blockchain it’s deployed on, and various other optimizations that align with the user’s own budget, performance requirements, privacy needs, and trust assumptions.

Dynamic NFTs (dNFTs)
A dynamic NFT is an NFT that can change based on external conditions. Change in a dynamic NFT often refers to changes in the NFT’s metadata triggered by a smart contract. Cite error: Closing </ref> missing for <ref> tag

NFT
NFTs (Non Fungible Tokens) are unique digital objects that exist on a blockchain. Every NFT can be differentiated from another through a 1-of-1 tokenID and its unique contract address. From there, metadata such as images, video files, or other data can be attached, meaning that it’s possible to own a token that represents a unique digital object.Cite error: Closing </ref> missing for <ref> tag

Zero knowledge proofs
A zero-knowledge proof is a cryptographic method that allows one party to prove that a given statement is true without revealing the underlying information. For in depth information read the following article HERE.
