    1. 0.2. Why It’s Important

Automatic Replay Protection is a mechanism used to prevent the accidental duplication of transactions across different blockchains after a network split or hard fork. When a blockchain forks, transactions on the original chain can potentially be replayed on the new chain, leading to unwanted or erroneous outcomes.

This protection ensures that transactions made on one blockchain cannot be replayed on another, safeguarding users from double-spending or unintended transfers. Automatic replay protection is especially important during forks, as it helps maintain the integrity of each blockchain by making sure that transactions are only valid on their intended network.

Why It’s Important

Without automatic replay protection, users could lose funds or face security risks during blockchain forks. This protection enhances the safety and reliability of decentralized networks, making transactions more secure.
