Finality rate
Finality is a blockchain condition (or status) that happens when a blockchain transaction has been authenticated and cannot be canceled, revoked, or changed by all network members. The finality rate is the time it takes for a contract to enter its final state after it has been completed. Depending on the blockchain in question, as well as the sense in which this word is used, this rate can be calculated in seconds or blocks.
