  Sure! When a bitcoin transaction is made, it is broadcasted to the network of computers called nodes. These nodes validate the transaction by checking if the sender has enough funds and if the transaction follows the rules of the Bitcoin protocol. Once the transaction is validated, it is added to a block. Miners then compete to solve a complex mathematical puzzle to add the block to the blockchain. This process, known as mining, requires significant computational power. Once a miner solves the puzzle, the block is added to the blockchain, and the transaction is considered verified.

  Bitcoin transactions are verified through a process called consensus. This means that the majority of nodes in the network must agree that the transaction is valid. This decentralized verification system ensures the security and integrity of the Bitcoin network. It also prevents double-spending, where someone tries to spend the same bitcoin more than once. So, when you make a bitcoin transaction, you can be confident that it will be verified by the network before being added to the blockchain.
