Filter Begin Blocker Events that are empty amounts

[nullpointer0x00]

Summary

The distribution module within the cosmos-sdk is generating events with nil amounts in the rewards category. This behavior typically occurs in blocks that do not contain any transaction fees. These events, while being recorded, consume a significant amount of disk space without providing useful information or value.

Problem Definition

The primary issue at hand is the unnecessary consumption of disk space caused by the recording of events with nil amounts in the rewards category. These events occur in blocks without transaction fees and contribute to data bloat without adding any functional value. This not only inefficiently utilizes storage resources but also complicates data management and analysis within the Provenance Network.

Including this feature enhances the efficiency of data storage and processing on the network. It presents an opportunity for Provenance to streamline its data handling, ensuring that only relevant and meaningful information is stored.

Proposal

The proposed solution involves introducing a mechanism within the application's BeginBlocker hook (defined in app.go) to filter out events.
