Balance Updates

Balance updates represent the change in the balance of an account. If the change is greater-or-equal to 0, it is considered a credit. Otherwise, it is considered a debit. In certain circumstances, there can be 0-valued balance updates (used to represent 0 fee transactions, for example, which were frequent in Bitcoin's early history).

The Balance Updates endpoint returns a list of accounts, which have the following fields:

Field Description
block_hash Hash of block containing the transaction affecting the balance
height Height of the block containing the transaction affecting the balance
consensus_time Consensus timestamp; always increases monotonically
chain_sequence_number Global sequence number or ordering of this update relative to all other updates recorded on the ledger up until this point
account Account receiving a balance change
account_creation_height Block height at account creation
change Balance change after this update
previous_balance Balance of the account prior to the application of this update
new_balance Balance of the account after this update
transaction_sequence_number Order of this update inside the transaction that contains it
previous_n_debits Number of times this account has been debited prior to this update
previous_n_credits Number of times this account has been credited prior to this update
transaction_hash Hash of the transaction containing the balance update
previous_debit_height Block height of the last debit from this account (null if no prior debit)
previous_credit_height Block height of the last credit from this account (null if no prior credit)
