• Details

An Activated Account is an account (wallet address) that is capable of sending outgoing transactions. Transactions from non-activated accounts are rejected by Graphite Nodes. To determine if an account is activated, Graphite Nodes check if there are any transcations in the blockchain that originated from the account. Account Activation is always the first transaction of any user account on the network.

The excessive value (fee) for account activation will be returned to the function caller.
