Re: negative balances, I did check an address on prohashing and it shows a zero balance instead of the 2240 negative that a posted address had. So explorer error is legitimate explanation. I didn't test, so that's just a single data point.

Thanks. I had checked prohashing as well previously.

The thing is, Verge and other crypto currencies exist and have various functions including transfer and representation of value held. Right? So, you would think (and hope) something as simple as a block explorer - specifically what I perceive to be the official "endorsed by Verge" version, would actually be accurate. But it isn't, and hasn't been for some time now. I've posted previously showing this fact as well.

We've all come to rely on checking block explorers to verify transfers, funds etc. People are putting real money out there and relying on the explorer to verify that things are OK with their funds.

As I have said previously, if Verge/Justin is in control of the explorer, then they are also in control of the database in-between the xvg blockchain and the web UI. This DB can easily be manipulated to display whatever data they would like. I don't trust Justin and I don't trust Verge. So, I'd just like to verify a few things on my own so that I can put my mind to rest

Did you know they have legacy BTC accounting code? Lots of places there can be a fuck up of balances. Also, I guessed about the negative balances because I saw that too and had the same idea to check. Was going to ask the Verge Telegram group but I don't think they'd want to support some one figuring out their code is janky Grin
