Explanation of phrases in Accounting Menu

Chequebook

The key fields in the Chequebook are explained below:

Total Balance: The balance of this account

Available Uncommitted Balance: Available Balance = Total Balance -Outstanding Cheques; when the available balance is 0, no more traffic can be acquired

Total Sent: The total number of cheques sent out

Total Received: The total number of cheques received

BNB Testnet Balance: The test coins collected at the BSC Testnet, which are used for file registration and cheque exchange

Peers

The key fields in the Peers form are explained below:

Peer: The hash of node that has traffic transactions with this node

Outstanding Balance: The outstanding balance, which indicates the portion of traffic that has not formed cheques. The threshold for cheque formation is 1M. When the traffic does not reach 1M, no cheque will be generated, but it will be recorded under this field

Settlements Sent: The total number of cheques I sent to this node

Settlements Received: The total number of cheques I received from this node

Total: The total of my cheque transactions with this node (including the outstanding balance)

Uncashed Amount: The amount of cheques that have not been exchanged

Cashout: Exchange the cheques for traffic coins

A negative number indicates indicates what I spent (or what I will spend); while a positive number indicates what I received (or what I will receive)

Example

Assuming that my total balance is 1.000000000, and I have not sent out any cheques (i.e. I owe no money), then the available balance is also 1.00000000.

First of all, clarify the conversion relation between traffic coins and traffic:

1 token=1x10⁹ KB, approximately equal to 1T

1 kb = 0.000000001 token

Then,

When I download a 1280KB (1024KB+256KB) file from the traffic provider (for ease of understanding, we try to keep the model simple and assuem that the traffic provider has only one node), then I will send a cheque of 1024KB to the traffic provider (the threshold for cheque formation is 1M, or 1024KB), which is 0.000001024,and the fields above will change as follows:

·

Traffic Receiver

·
