  Pre-authorization plays a crucial role in POS transactions for cryptocurrencies. It allows merchants to reserve funds on a customer's account before the actual transaction takes place. This ensures that the customer has sufficient funds to complete the purchase and reduces the risk of fraudulent transactions. Additionally, pre-authorization provides a seamless and efficient transaction experience for both the merchant and the customer.

  Pre-authorization is like a security deposit for cryptocurrency transactions. It acts as a temporary hold on the customer's funds, ensuring that they are available to cover the transaction amount. This process helps prevent instances of insufficient funds or failed transactions. It also provides a level of assurance to the merchant that the customer has the intention and ability to complete the purchase.
