I am using Electrum wallet and I want to know what the gap limit is. I heard it has something to do with the number of unused addresses the wallet will generate before stopping. Can someone explain this to me?

This means that the wallet will continue to retrieve addresses until it encounters 20 consecutive unused addresses.

By setting a gap limit, the wallet can cease searching for new addresses once it encounters a certain number of unused ones.
