Credit Debit tables contain the amount and direction (credit/debit) of every transfer event of TRX. This table will include two rows for every event, with one row representing credit and one row representing debit. Asset-specific tables are also available for query.

​
Difference with transfers

Unlike token transfers, data here is organized into credit and debit rows (similar to the accounting concept called “double entry book”).

​
Methodology

Using TRX as an example, a token transfer will be represented as follows:
from_addressto_addressamountevent
XY1250X transfers 1250 tokens to Y
In credit debit, it will be represented as two rows.
addresscounterparty_addressamountevent
XY-1250X decrease 1250 tokens to Y
YX1250Y increase 1250 tokens from X
