-sg- Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 (edited) Hello, I generated a brand new XRP address and activated it by depositing 20 XRP via BTC Markets. However, when I check the wallet information using bithomp, it states that the next sequence number for the address is #57633358: https://bithomp.com/explorer/rKxppk74EgdjW48gYgUmavPukNjfuqQxkx I expected next sequence number to be #1, since it's a new address. The currently displayed sequence number indicates to me that the address has transacted over 57 million transactions, but it hasn't because it's brand new and just activated. I believe that sequence numbers should also have no gap in order to be valid. How did the next sequence number get set to such a high number? Perhaps I don't understand XRP sequence numbering properly... Many thanks for your help. Edited August 20, 2020 by -sg- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
