Terms
Cross-reference anchors used throughout the protocol documentation.
Each entry below is a target for :ref:-style links from the
protocol pages.
This page is generated by scripts/publish-terms.mjs from
tools/rst2md/_terms.md (originally terms.rst in the upstream
developer.reddcoin.com repo). Inline anchors will eventually
replace this registry — see the upstream note in the source — but
until then this is the canonical landing for term-* cross
references.
