Here is a tip for you💡

Always test an API before integarion. Testing an API before integration provides a controlled environment to evaluate the API.
This proactive approach helps ensure a smoother integration process and a more reliable final application

Here is a tip for you💡

Before integrating with a blockchain API, consider thoroughly reviewing and understanding the blockchain's documentation, especially its consensus mechanism and transaction confirmation process.

This will help you anticipate potential delays, transaction fees, and design your application to work efficiently within the constraints of the blockchain network.

Here is a tip for you💡

When selecting a blockchain wallet, focus on choosing a reliable and secure wallet provider that suits your needs.

Note that blockchain wallet addresses are randomly generated by the wallet software and should not be chosen manually.
