finance/get/stakeinfo

This will retrieve account values and staking metrics for the trust account belonging to the currently logged in signature chain. If called when the stake minter is not running, this method only returns trust account values. Staking metrics will return 0.

finance/set/stake

Creates a stake change request for a profile's trust account. This request will add or remove stake to set the stake value to the requested amount. If the new value is more than the current stake amount, it adds stake from the account balance. If the new value is less, it removes stake to the account balance (with appropriate trust penalty, if applicable).

Requests are saved locally and take effect with the next stake block found by staking the profiles's trust account. Because they are saved locally, you must continue to stake on the machine where it was created until the next stake block is found, or the request will not be processed. Until implemented, you can update the request by calling set/stake again.

To remove a stake change request, you can either set an expiration time, or set the amount equal to the current trust account stake.

finance/set/stake

finance/void/transaction

Voids (reverses) a debit or transfer transaction, only if it has not been credited or claimed by the recipient. The method creates a corresponding credit or claim transaction but back to the originating account / profile. This means that any applicable fees will apply, as will conditions on the debit / transfer transaction (such as expiration conditions).

For debits that were made to a tokenized asset as part of a split payment transaction, the reversing credit will be made for the debit amount minus any partial amounts that have already been credited by the token holders.

finance/void/transaction

finance/migrate/accounts

This method will migrate your legacy accounts to signature chain accounts, sending the balance across in the process. A new account will be created in your signature chain for each legacy account, with a corresponding matching name (unless flagged not to create names). The balance of each legacy account is sent to the newly created signature chain account in individual transactions. As such, each transaction incurs the default legacy fee of 0.01 NXS, which is deducted from the amount being migrated.

The method uses the arbitrary data field in the account object register to track which legacy account it was created from. As a result, it is possible to invoke this method multiple times, and each time it will sweep any NXS from legacy accounts to existing signature chain accounts (as well as creating any necessary new accounts).

finance/migrate/accounts

Supported Nouns

Verbs

burn

This method can be used to take tokens permanently out of the current supply in a process commonly known as "burning". The method will debit a token account and send the tokens back to the token address. However the transaction contains a condition that will always evaluate to false, guaranteeing that the debit cannot be credited by the token issuer nor the sender. The result is that the amount burned will always appear in the "pending" balance of the token.

finance/burn/account

This command only supports the account noun.
