Hi

I send 130 dollars someone.  I check blockchain the transaction.  And i see "Amount"  and "Output Value"  and "To"   arround 170 dollars.    But i only 130 dollars send.   This normal?  Why see 170 dollars?
I think when you send a transaction on the blockchain, the "Amount" field represents the specific amount you sent. The "Output Value" field includes not just the amount you sent but also any change generated during the transaction. The "To" field displays the recipient's address. If you see an output value higher than the amount you sent, it's likely due to change being returned to your own address. This is normal, as change is often involved in transactions, but still i am not sure.
