Identifier of a Bitcoin transaction: the double SHA-256 hash of the serialized transaction without its witness data, written as 64 hexadecimal digits in reversed byte order, as block explorers and the Bitcoin Core RPC show it. Block hashes and the transaction IDs of Bitcoin forks (Litecoin, Bitcoin Cash, Dogecoin) have the same form, so the value alone does not tell them apart.
