Transaction on Ethereum network.

GIFA Token's transaction can be tentatively completed in 5 seconds to 30 minutes for confirmation and for the token to be in your wallet. However, it depends on the Network congestion and the gas fee. There have been instances when a transaction would take longer to process. Therefore, choosing an appropriate gas fee is essential for the timely confirmation of transactions.

 1) How do GIFA Token transactions work?

GIFA Token is a digital payment system that doesn't rely on banks to verify transactions. It’s a peer-to-peer system that can enable anyone anywhere to send and receive payments. Instead of being physical money carried around and exchanged in the real world, cryptocurrency payments exist purely as digital entries to an online database describing specific transactions on the blockchain. 

A GIFA Token transaction is a transfer of value from one address to another. Unlike Bitcoin, which moves value by spending previously unspent transactions, GIFA Token doesn't have proof-of-work which requires solving computational hashes to add new blocks. A transaction is created by a user on the GIFX network, then broadcast out to all the other nodes, and becomes part of the whole Blockchain.

The Blockchain is a public record of all transactions by all addresses in the world. However, an address is just a number - it doesn't reveal anything about the identity of the one using it like a street address. As long as these blockchain addresses are never linked to an identity, the GIFA Token users are safe. There is no way to "trace" a GIFA Token address to the person using it - unless they leave some clues that make someone connect their GIFA Token address to their physical identity. www.gifatoken.com has maximum anonymity - we don't ask for personal details either.

The GIFX network is a completely decentralized connection of peer-to-peer nodes, which process transactions and record them on the blockchain. Anyone anywhere with internet and a computer can join the GIFA Token's network by running a node. To be more precise, GIFA Token transactions are records of balances moved amongst addresses. New blocks are generated at a fixed time interval of 20 seconds. Each block is connected to the one chronologically preceding it by a cryptographic hash. Once a block has been verified, it is distributed to the other nodes as a peer-to-peer shared file.

As a blockchain-based cryptocurrency GIFA Token executes its transactions on data blocks, then links the blocks cryptographically. The chain of blocks is stored across a decentralized network of stakeholder nodes, and distributed as peer-to-peer shared files. When you transfer cryptocurrency funds, the transactions are recorded in a public ledger. GIFA Token is stored in digital wallets that are encrypted at certain address sequences paired with a private key. 

GIFA Token runs on a distributed public ledger called blockchain, a record of all transactions updated and held by currency holders. Units of cryptocurrency have been awarded and issued to investors during an initial coin offering (ICO), which involves using computer power to solve complicated mathematical problems that generate coins. Users can also buy the GIFA Token from online brokers and exchanges, then store and spend it using digital wallets. 

You can't able to touch GIFA Token since it's a virtual currency that allows you to move a digital record or a unit of value from one computer to another using a private key. Although cryptocurrency has been around since 2009, many promising cryptocurrencies are still emerging in financial terms, and more uses are expected in the future. Transactions including bonds, stocks, and other financial assets could eventually be traded using the technology.

 2) How long does GIFA Token take to transfer?

This question is very important and this is the reason we used it as a heading: Have your cryptocurrency transactions ever got stuck which has made you wait for hours for your asset to arrive in the wallet? It happens almost all times and maybe you wondered why it takes more than 10 minutes in receiving your BTC, GIFX, etc. We’ve all been there, but how many of us have tried to find an answer to it? In this post, I’ll walk you through the whole thing, so you get a better understanding of how long it takes to transfer GIFA Token between wallets. 

GIFA Token transactions can take anywhere from 1 minute to 30 minutes to a wallet as I already mentioned. In some crypto exchanges, people could wait 1-8 days for the transaction to be completed.  Before going further, it is imperative to understand what factors affect the transaction time of the GIFA Token. And there are primarily two factors, namely:

1. Network congestion
2. Gas fees

The load on the network refers to the number of transactions that the GIFX blockchain processes in a day. Needless to state, the higher the number of transactions, the more the time to process each of them. Furthermore, the fee decides which transaction gets the priority on the Ethereum blockchain, the network prioritizes transactions with higher fees attached to them. This delay can theoretically be indefinite because if your transaction fee is very less then chances are your transaction will be picked at last. And most of the delay happens due to this only.

There is not a fixed transaction time for GIFA Token. It depends on your transaction fee, also known as a gas fee, and the network congestion. The higher the transaction fee, the quicker your transaction will be completed and vice versa. Whereas, the higher the network congestion, the slower will be your transaction. To determine the transaction fee or gas, you need to decide about two things that are gas price and gas limit.

Gas price is the cost of each unit of gas and the gas limit is the maximum gas you can pay for the transaction. What is the Ethereum transaction gas fee? The gas fee is the price paid to facilitate your transaction into an Ethereum block. Gwei is the unit of gas fee and it is equal to 0.000000001 Ether. It is calculated by multiplying the Gas Price by the Gas Used.

Gas Price is determined by the Network Congestion. Think of it as an Auction Event: The one who places the highest bid gets the award. Similarly, there are hundreds of people on the Ethereum network waiting to get their transactions added to a block that is done by miners. Now, if a miner adds your transaction to a block, he/she would get the gas price you paid. Therefore, it is natural for them to choose the transaction that has a higher gas.

Now, there would be many people who are in a hurry and willing to pay a high fee for quicker transactions. As a result, the gas price rises. Can you speed up an Ethereum transaction? Yes, you can speed up your Ethereum transaction by paying a higher transaction fee than before. As we stated earlier that the gas depends on the network congestion and the gas fee. Therefore, you need to determine what is the average gas paid by other users. After that, re-submit that same transaction with a gas that is similar to the average gas at that time on that network or at least higher than what you paid previously. As a result, your transaction will be higher in the queue of pending transactions and miners would be more likely to process i

 3) What is a GIFA Token address?

GIFA Token's address is comprised of sequences and characters associated with a balance of GIFX on the blockchain network. Your GIFA Token address is a string of letters and numbers which uniquely identifies your GIFA Wallet. The letters and numbers represent what is called a "public key", which the whole world knows about, and is used in conjunction with a "private key", which only you know. GIFA Token addresses start with a numerical ''0'', followed by a letter ''X'' oftentimes in lower case. So, [0x1cc811afa7e994cdeaeab3f5879b028e765b0c87] is an example of a full GIFA Token address. 

A crypto address is just a Public Key, which is cryptographically generated from a Private Key. Anyone with this Private Key can "sign in" and execute the transaction for a corresponding Public Key provided. Anyone with a Public Key can also verify the signature. Signing for the transaction approval and transfer value from one address to a different address.

Anyone who knows the private key can move the coins from an original address to another. If the private key is not known, it's not possible to spend or transfer the token to any address. GIFA Token is stored in the digital wallet ''GIFA Wallet'' on a centralized exchange, therefore if someone gets access to your wallet and also possesses a private key and login information, GIFA Token can be stolen - and sometimes it is impossible to retrieve it back. 

With GIFA Wallet and the log-in details to www.gifatoken.com in your hands, you are in charge of your wallet at all times. One key thing to keep in mind is: that if you lose your address, you lose all of your tokens. So keep up with it, maybe even make some backups and save them on another drive or write them on a piece of paper for not to forget, just in case.

 4) Where is GIFA Token accepted?

GIFA Token is used for anything money is used for - buying, selling, donations, remittance, and investment. Many merchants, especially online businesses, accept cryptocurrencies as payment. Local auto dealers, car rental businesses, real estate, furniture shops, and hotels accept GIFA Token. Local restaurants are also coming on board. Thousands of people everywhere in the world use, the GIFA Token for all the same things as any other digital currency used for investments - and the number of users are growing rapidly. 

Anyone needing to transfer funds internationally, especially outside the grasp of authoritarian regimes and remittance services for students and tourists, at ridiculously low cost, will find GIFA Token useful if they are not already using it. GIFA Token is also used as an investment instrument and a hedge against inflation. For buying GIFA Token, the GIFA Exchange is the right place to buy and sell GIFA Token, we also have brokers in many countries in the world. 

GIFA Token trading is done directly on the exchange platform and online. There are requirements when first signing up for GIFA Exchange, the new user needs to provide identification, such as uploading a scanned passport or submitting other government documents like ID, driving license, and a municipality bill that proves the place of residence.
