bank

Abstract

This document specifies the bank module of the Cosmos SDK.

The bank module is responsible for handling multi-asset coin transfers between accounts and tracking special-case pseudo-transfers which must work differently with particular kinds of accounts (notably delegating/undelegating for vesting accounts). It exposes several interfaces with varying capabilities for secure interaction with other modules which must alter user balances.

In addition, the bank module tracks and provides query support for the total supply of all assets used in the application.

Supply

The supply functionality:

• passively tracks the total supply of coins within a chain,

• provides a pattern for modules to hold/interact with Coins, and

• introduces the invariant check to verify a chain's total supply.

Total Supply

The total Supply of the network is equal to the sum of all coins from the account. The total supply is updated every time a Coin is minted (eg: as part of the inflation mechanism) or burned (eg: due to slashing or if a governance proposal is vetoed).

Module Accounts

The supply functionality introduces a new type of auth.Account which can be used by modules to allocate tokens and in special cases mint or burn tokens. At a base level these module accounts are capable of sending/receiving tokens to and from auth.Accounts and other module accounts. This design replaces previous alternative designs where, to hold tokens, modules would burn the incoming tokens from the sender account, and then track those tokens internally. Later, in order to send tokens, the module would need to effectively mint tokens within a destination account. The new design removes duplicate logic between modules to perform this accounting.

The ModuleAccount interface is defined as follows:

type ModuleAccount interface {
  auth.Account               // same methods as the Account interface

  GetName() string           // name of the module; used to obtain the address
  GetPermissions() []string  // permissions of module account
  HasPermission(string) bool
}

WARNING! Any module or message handler that allows either direct or indirect sending of funds must explicitly guarantee those funds cannot be sent to module accounts (unless allowed).

The supply Keeper also introduces new wrapper functions for the auth Keeper and the bank Keeper that are related to ModuleAccounts in order to be able to:

• Get and set ModuleAccounts by providing the Name.

• Send coins from and to other ModuleAccounts or standard Accounts (BaseAccount or VestingAccount) by passing only the Name.

• Mint or Burn coins for a ModuleAccount (restricted to its permissions).

Permissions

Each ModuleAccount has a different set of permissions that provide different object capabilities to perform certain actions. Permissions need to be registered upon the creation of the supply Keeper so that every time a ModuleAccount calls the allowed functions, the Keeper can lookup the permissions to that specific account and perform or not perform the action.

The available permissions are:

• Minter: allows for a module to mint a specific amount of coins.

• Burner: allows for a module to burn a specific amount of coins.

• Staking: allows for a module to delegate and undelegate a specific amount of coins.

State

The x/bank module keeps state of the following primary objects:

1. Account balances

2. Denomination metadata

3. The total supply of all balances

4. Information on which denominations are allowed to be sent.

In addition, the x/bank module keeps the following indexes to manage the aforementioned state:

• Supply Index: 0x0 | byte(denom) -> byte(amount)

• Denom Metadata Index: 0x1 | byte(denom) -> ProtocolBuffer(Metadata)

• Balances Index: 0x2 | byte(address length) | []byte(address) | []byte(balance.Denom) -> ProtocolBuffer(balance)

• Reverse Denomination to Address Index: 0x03 | byte(denom) | 0x00 | []byte(address) -> 0

Params

The bank module stores it's params in state with the prefix of 0x05, it can be updated with governance or the address with authority.

• Params: 0x05 | ProtocolBuffer(Params)

proto/cosmos/bank/v1beta1/bank.proto

// Params defines the parameters for the bank module.
message Params {
  option (amino.name)                 = "cosmos-sdk/x/bank/Params";
  option (gogoproto.goproto_stringer) = false;
  // Deprecated: Use of SendEnabled in params is deprecated.
  // For genesis, use the newly added send_enabled field in the genesis object.
  // Storage, lookup, and manipulation of this information is now in the keeper.
  //
  // As of cosmos-sdk 0.47, this only exists for backwards compatibility of genesis files.
  repeated SendEnabled send_enabled         = 1 [deprecated = true];
  bool                 default_send_enabled = 2;
}

Keepers

The bank module provides these exported keeper interfaces that can be passed to other modules that read or update account balances. Modules should use the least-permissive interface that provides the functionality they require.

Best practices dictate careful review of bank module code to ensure that permissions are limited in the way that you expect.

Denied Addresses

The x/bank module accepts a map of addresses that are considered blocklisted from directly and explicitly receiving funds through means such as MsgSend and MsgMultiSend and direct API calls like SendCoinsFromModuleToAccount.

Typically, these addresses are module accounts. If these addresses receive funds outside the expected rules of the state machine, invariants are likely to be broken and could result in a halted network.

By providing the x/bank module with a blocklisted set of addresses, an error occurs for the operation if a user or client attempts to directly or indirectly send funds to a blocklisted account, for example, by using IBC.

Common Types

Input

An input of a multiparty transfer

// Input models transaction input.
message Input {
  string   address                        = 1;
  repeated cosmos.base.v1beta1.Coin coins = 2;
}

Output

An output of a multiparty transfer.

// Output models transaction outputs.
message Output {
  string   address                        = 1;
  repeated cosmos.base.v1beta1.Coin coins = 2;
}

BaseKeeper

The base keeper provides full-permission access: the ability to arbitrary modify any account's balance and mint or burn coins.

Restricted permission to mint per module could be achieved by using baseKeeper with WithMintCoinsRestriction to give specific restrictions to mint (e.g. only minting certain denom).

// Keeper defines a module interface that facilitates the transfer of coins
// between accounts.
type Keeper interface {
    SendKeeper
    WithMintCoinsRestriction(MintingRestrictionFn) BaseKeeper

    InitGenesis(context.Context, *types.GenesisState)
    ExportGenesis(context.Context) *types.GenesisState

    GetSupply(ctx context.Context, denom string) sdk.Coin
    HasSupply(ctx context.Context, denom string) bool
    GetPaginatedTotalSupply(ctx context.Context, pagination *query.PageRequest) (sdk.Coins, *query.PageResponse, error)
    IterateTotalSupply(ctx context.Context, cb func(sdk.Coin) bool)
    GetDenomMetaData(ctx context.Context, denom string) (types.Metadata, bool)
    HasDenomMetaData(ctx context.Context, denom string) bool
    SetDenomMetaData(ctx context.Context, denomMetaData types.Metadata)

    MintCoins(ctx context.Context, moduleName string, amt sdk.Coins) error
    BurnCoins(ctx context.Context, moduleName string, amt sdk.Coins) error

    DelegateCoins(ctx context.Context, delegatorAddr, moduleAccAddr sdk.AccAddress, amt sdk.Coins) error
    UndelegateCoins(ctx context.Context, moduleAccAddr, delegatorAddr sdk.AccAddress, amt sdk.Coins) error

    // GetAuthority gets the address capable of executing governance proposal messages. Usually the gov module account.
    GetAuthority() string

    types.QueryServer
}

SendKeeper

The send keeper provides access to account balances and the ability to transfer coins between accounts. The send keeper does not alter the total supply (mint or burn coins).

// SendKeeper defines a module interface that facilitates the transfer of coins
// between accounts without the possibility of creating coins.
type SendKeeper interface {
    ViewKeeper

    AppendSendRestriction(restriction SendRestrictionFn)
    PrependSendRestriction(restriction SendRestrictionFn)
    ClearSendRestriction()

    InputOutputCoins(ctx context.Context, input types.Input, outputs []types.Output) error
    SendCoins(ctx context.Context, fromAddr, toAddr sdk.AccAddress, amt sdk.Coins) error

    GetParams(ctx context.Context) types.Params
    SetParams(ctx context.Context, params types.Params) error

    IsSendEnabledDenom(ctx context.Context, denom string) bool
    SetSendEnabled(ctx context.Context, denom string, value bool)
    SetAllSendEnabled(ctx context.Context, sendEnableds []*types.SendEnabled)
    DeleteSendEnabled(ctx context.Context, denom string)
    IterateSendEnabledEntries(ctx context.Context, cb func(denom string, sendEnabled bool) (stop bool))
    GetAllSendEnabledEntries(ctx context.Context) []types.SendEnabled

    IsSendEnabledCoin(ctx context.Context, coin sdk.Coin) bool
    IsSendEnabledCoins(ctx context.Context, coins ...sdk.Coin) error

    BlockedAddr(addr sdk.AccAddress) bool
}

Send Restrictions

The SendKeeper applies a SendRestrictionFn before each transfer of funds.

// A SendRestrictionFn can restrict sends and/or provide a new receiver address.
type SendRestrictionFn func(ctx context.Context, fromAddr, toAddr sdk.AccAddress, amt sdk.Coins) (newToAddr sdk.AccAddress, err error)

After the SendKeeper (or BaseKeeper) has been created, send restrictions can be added to it using the AppendSendRestriction or PrependSendRestriction functions. Both functions compose the provided restriction with any previously provided restrictions. AppendSendRestriction adds the provided restriction to be run after any previously provided send restrictions. PrependSendRestriction adds the restriction to be run before any previously provided send restrictions. The composition will short-circuit when an error is encountered. I.e. if the first one returns an error, the second is not run.

During SendCoins, the send restriction is applied after coins are removed from the from address, but before adding them to the to address. During InputOutputCoins, the send restriction is applied after the input coins are removed and once for each output before the funds are added.

A send restriction function should make use of a custom value in the context to allow bypassing that specific restriction.

For example, in your module's keeper package, you'd define the send restriction function:

var _ banktypes.SendRestrictionFn = Keeper{}.SendRestrictionFn

func (k Keeper) SendRestrictionFn(ctx context.Context, fromAddr, toAddr sdk.AccAddress, amt sdk.Coins) (sdk.AccAddress, error) {
    // Bypass if the context says to.
    if mymodule.HasBypass(ctx) {
        return toAddr, nil
    }

    // Your custom send restriction logic goes here.
    return nil, errors.New("not implemented")
}

The bank keeper should be provided to your keeper's constructor so the send restriction can be added to it:

func NewKeeper(cdc codec.BinaryCodec, storeKey storetypes.StoreKey, bankKeeper mymodule.BankKeeper) Keeper {
    rv := Keeper{/*...*/}
    bankKeeper.AppendSendRestriction(rv.SendRestrictionFn)
    return rv
}

Then, in the mymodule package, define the context helpers:

const bypassKey = "bypass-mymodule-restriction"

// WithBypass returns a new context that will cause the mymodule bank send restriction to be skipped.
func WithBypass(ctx context.Context) context.Context {
    return sdk.UnwrapSDKContext(ctx).WithValue(bypassKey, true)
}

// WithoutBypass returns a new context that will cause the mymodule bank send restriction to not be skipped.
func WithoutBypass(ctx context.Context) context.Context {
    return sdk.UnwrapSDKContext(ctx).WithValue(bypassKey, false)
}

// HasBypass checks the context to see if the mymodule bank send restriction should be skipped.
func HasBypass(ctx context.Context) bool {
    bypassValue := ctx.Value(bypassKey)
    if bypassValue == nil {
        return false
    }
    bypass, isBool := bypassValue.(bool)
    return isBool && bypass
}

Now, anywhere where you want to use SendCoins or InputOutputCoins, but you don't want your send restriction applied:

func (k Keeper) DoThing(ctx context.Context, fromAddr, toAddr sdk.AccAddress, amt sdk.Coins) error {
    return k.bankKeeper.SendCoins(mymodule.WithBypass(ctx), fromAddr, toAddr, amt)
}

ViewKeeper

The view keeper provides read-only access to account balances. The view keeper does not have balance alteration functionality. All balance lookups are O(1).

// ViewKeeper defines a module interface that facilitates read only access to
// account balances.
type ViewKeeper interface {
    ValidateBalance(ctx context.Context, addr sdk.AccAddress) error
    HasBalance(ctx context.Context, addr sdk.AccAddress, amt sdk.Coin) bool

    GetAllBalances(ctx context.Context, addr sdk.AccAddress) sdk.Coins
    GetAccountsBalances(ctx context.Context) []types.Balance
    GetBalance(ctx context.Context, addr sdk.AccAddress, denom string) sdk.Coin
    LockedCoins(ctx context.Context, addr sdk.AccAddress) sdk.Coins
    SpendableCoins(ctx context.Context, addr sdk.AccAddress) sdk.Coins
    SpendableCoin(ctx context.Context, addr sdk.AccAddress, denom string) sdk.Coin

    IterateAccountBalances(ctx context.Context, addr sdk.AccAddress, cb func(coin sdk.Coin) (stop bool))
    IterateAllBalances(ctx context.Context, cb func(address sdk.AccAddress, coin sdk.Coin) (stop bool))
}

Messages

MsgSend

Send coins from one address to another.

proto/cosmos/bank/v1beta1/tx.proto

// MsgSend represents a message to send coins from one account to another.
message MsgSend {
  option (cosmos.msg.v1.signer) = "from_address";
  option (amino.name)           = "cosmos-sdk/MsgSend";

  option (gogoproto.equal)           = false;
  option (gogoproto.goproto_getters) = false;

  string   from_address                    = 1 [(cosmos_proto.scalar) = "cosmos.AddressString"];
  string   to_address                      = 2 [(cosmos_proto.scalar) = "cosmos.AddressString"];
  repeated cosmos.base.v1beta1.Coin amount = 3 [
    (gogoproto.nullable)     = false,
    (amino.dont_omitempty)   = true,
    (gogoproto.castrepeated) = "github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/types.Coins"
  ];
}

See full example on GitHub

The message will fail under the following conditions:

• The coins do not have sending enabled

• The to address is restricted

MsgMultiSend

Send coins from one sender and to a series of different address. If any of the receiving addresses do not correspond to an existing account, a new account is created.

proto/cosmos/bank/v1beta1/tx.proto

// MsgMultiSend represents an arbitrary multi-in, multi-out send message.
message MsgMultiSend {
  option (cosmos.msg.v1.signer) = "inputs";
  option (amino.name)           = "cosmos-sdk/MsgMultiSend";

  option (gogoproto.equal) = false;

  // Inputs, despite being `repeated`, only allows one sender input. This is
  // checked in MsgMultiSend's ValidateBasic.
  repeated Input  inputs  = 1 [(gogoproto.nullable) = false, (amino.dont_omitempty) = true];
  repeated Output outputs = 2 [(gogoproto.nullable) = false, (amino.dont_omitempty) = true];
}

See full example on GitHub

The message will fail under the following conditions:

• Any of the coins do not have sending enabled

• Any of the to addresses are restricted

• Any of the coins are locked

• The inputs and outputs do not correctly correspond to one another

MsgUpdateParams

The bank module params can be updated through MsgUpdateParams, which can be done using governance proposal. The signer will always be the gov module account address.

proto/cosmos/bank/v1beta1/tx.proto

// MsgUpdateParams is the Msg/UpdateParams request type.
//
// Since: cosmos-sdk 0.47
message MsgUpdateParams {
  option (cosmos.msg.v1.signer) = "authority";

  // authority is the address that controls the module (defaults to x/gov unless overwritten).
  string authority    = 1 [(cosmos_proto.scalar) = "cosmos.AddressString"];
  option (amino.name) = "cosmos-sdk/x/bank/MsgUpdateParams";

  // params defines the x/bank parameters to update.
  //
  // NOTE: All parameters must be supplied.
  Params params = 2 [(gogoproto.nullable) = false, (amino.dont_omitempty) = true];
}

See full example on GitHub

The message handling can fail if:

• signer is not the gov module account address.

MsgSetSendEnabled

Used with the x/gov module to set create/edit SendEnabled entries.

proto/cosmos/bank/v1beta1/tx.proto

// MsgSetSendEnabled is the Msg/SetSendEnabled request type.
//
// Only entries to add/update/delete need to be included.
// Existing SendEnabled entries that are not included in this
// message are left unchanged.
//
// Since: cosmos-sdk 0.47
message MsgSetSendEnabled {
  option (cosmos.msg.v1.signer) = "authority";
  option (amino.name)           = "cosmos-sdk/MsgSetSendEnabled";

  string authority = 1 [(cosmos_proto.scalar) = "cosmos.AddressString"];

  // send_enabled is the list of entries to add or update.
  repeated SendEnabled send_enabled = 2;

  // use_default_for is a list of denoms that should use the params.default_send_enabled value.
  // Denoms listed here will have their SendEnabled entries deleted.
  // If a denom is included that doesn't have a SendEnabled entry,
  // it will be ignored.
  repeated string use_default_for = 3;
}

See full example on GitHub

The message will fail under the following conditions:

• The authority is not a decodable address.

• The authority is not x/gov module's address.

• There are multiple SendEnabled entries with the same Denom.

• One or more SendEnabled entries has an invalid Denom.

MsgBurn

Used to burn coins from an account. The coins are removed from the account and the total supply is reduced.

proto/cosmos/bank/v1beta1/tx.proto

  option (cosmos.msg.v1.signer) = "from_address";
  option (amino.name)           = "cosmos-sdk/MsgBurn";

  option (gogoproto.equal)           = false;
  option (gogoproto.goproto_getters) = false;

  string   from_address                    = 1 [(cosmos_proto.scalar) = "cosmos.AddressString"];
  repeated cosmos.base.v1beta1.Coin amount = 3 [(amino.dont_omitempty) = true, (amino.encoding) = "legacy_coins"];
}

// MsgBurnResponse defines the Msg/Burn response type.
message MsgBurnResponse {}

See full example on GitHub

This message will fail under the following conditions:

• The signer is not present

• The coins are not spendable

• The coins are not positive

• The coins are not valid
