Mempool: A waiting room for queued and pending transactions.
Node: A computer that connects to the Bitcoin network.
Private Key: A private key is a piece of data that proves your right to spend bitcoins from a specific wallet through a cryptographic signature.
UTXO: Unspent Transaction Output - An output that has not been sent to another address. The bitcoin wallet balance is calculated from adding up unspent outputs.
