Blocks

TON blocks are units of data that contain batches of validated transactions and messages, forming the backbone of the TON blockchain.

Table Columns

Column Name	Description
after_merge	Indicates if the block was created after merging two shardchains.
after_split	Indicates if the block was created after splitting a shardchain.
before_split	Indicates if the block was created before splitting a shardchain.
