Whitelist

Whitelist is a collection of approved addresses or participants in a crypto context, granting them exclusive access or benefits. In ICOs or token sales, being on a whitelist often means you can purchase tokens before the public. This process helps ensure compliance, manage demand, and enhance security. Whitelisting can also be used for software, allowing only certain addresses to interact with a smart contract. Overall, it helps projects maintain control over who can participate, enhancing both security and operational efficiency.
