About Network

Read live from Stellar RPC and Horizon. Every figure carries the source that answered and how long ago it did.

Stellar RPC answers the ledger and the endpoint horizon. Horizon answers the base fee, the base reserve, issuer flags, trustlines and asset statistics — the facts that are JSON there and XDR everywhere else. Horizon is nearing end-of-life in favour of RPC and SDF’s Portfolio APIs, so every read records which source answered: replacing one later is a source change, not a rewrite.

Why the horizon matters

Below the oldest readable ledger the endpoint has nothing to return. That answer is indistinguishable from the event never happened unless the horizon is known — which is why it is read and shown rather than assumed, and why a receipt that cannot be found near this boundary is not evidence of anything.

About the reserve

The base reserve is locked per subentry, and a trustline is one subentry — so holding an issued asset costs XLM that stays locked for as long as the trustline exists. It is read from the ledger here rather than hardcoded, because it is a network parameter and not a constant.

Base fee100Stroops per operation, at the current ledger.

Base reserve0.5000000 XLMLocked per subentry. A trustline costs one.
