  • 2. Abstract
  • 3. Status
  • 4. Motivation

    • 5.2 Register Process

1. Summary

This BEP describes how to have a better understanding of the origin of a transaction with a special field in a transaction for recording its source.

2. Abstract

By adding a field in each transaction message, the origin of any transaction could be tracked.

3. Status

This BEP is WIP.

4. Motivation

Binance Chain is designed to connect with multiple service providers, and each provider is incentivized to broadcast more transactions. This proposal does not want to deal with assigning the values for various source types. The different sources will claim different value and such a proposition will be assigned afterwards.

5. Specification

5.1 Transaction Data Structure

The transaction is a standard way to wrap a message with signatures.

Field	Type	Description
Msgs	message	transaction message
Sig	signature	signatures from the account holder
Memo	string	some notes come with the transaction
Source	int64	where does this transaction come from
Data	byte[]	transaction data

5.2 Register Process

• Service Provider proposes to add a source type
• Maintainer review the proposal
• If the proposal gets accepted, this new type will be recorded.

5.3 Registered Source types

These are the registered source types.

All of these constant values shall be considered hardcoded in client implementations.

Identifier	Source Description
0	Binance Chain Command Line
1	Binance DEX Web Wallet
2	Trust Wallet

6. License

The content is licensed under CC0.

I think it would be better to declear 0 stands for no source, in case later register

and we do not specify source in our released binaries.
