  The 'not equals' operator in Python is represented by the symbol '!='. It is used to compare two values and returns True if they are not equal, and False if they are equal. In the context of cryptocurrency transactions, this operator can be used to check if two values, such as the amount of cryptocurrency sent and received, are not equal. For example, if the amount sent is not equal to the amount received, it could indicate an error or discrepancy in the transaction.

  On the other hand, the 'in' operator in Python is used to check if a value is present in a sequence, such as a list or a string. It returns True if the value is found in the sequence, and False otherwise. In the context of cryptocurrency transactions, the 'in' operator can be used to check if a specific cryptocurrency address is present in a list of valid addresses. For example, if the address is in the list of valid addresses, it means that the transaction is valid and can be processed.

This operator provides a simple and efficient way to check if an address is valid and helps prevent potential errors or fraud in transactions. By using the 'in' operator, you can ensure that the transaction is being sent to a trusted and verified address, reducing the risk of funds being sent to the wrong recipient.
