OP_CTV aka CheckTemplateVerify is an opcode proposal that enables locking coins based on predefined transaction attributes. It's like a special rule for locking your coins with a specific plan on how to spend them in the future. Imagine it as setting a combination lock on your coins, where only a certain key (or transaction) matches your pre-set conditions can open it.
