The most salient feature of the LBRY blockchain is the association of a normalized string of characters (a "name") with a structured set of metadata. This coupling is called a [[claim]]. The content referenced by a claim can be accessed as a LBRY URL, e.g. [lbry://hellolbry](/playground?url=hellolbry).
The LBRY blockchain stores names and metadata in a parallel [[Merkle tree]], separate from the tree used to store transaction data. This allows LBRY URLs to be trustfully resolved even without a full copy of the blockchain.
The LBRY blockchain stores names and metadata in a parallel [Merkle tree](/resources/claimtrie), separate from the tree used to store transaction data. This allows LBRY URLs to be trustfully resolved even without a full copy of the blockchain.
The metadata contains information about the content, such as the title, creator, price (if any), and a unique signature allowing the actual content to be fetched from the data network, the next level in the LBRY stack.
