unforgeable
Impossible to counterfeit
Unforgeable describes something that cannot be counterfeited, falsified, or fraudulently replicated.
The term appears most often in technical contexts like cryptography and security, where unforgeable signatures or tokens are designed to resist tampering or imitation.
The blockchain creates an unforgeable record of transactions.
Something unforgeable offers a guarantee of authenticity that conventional methods cannot provide.
