ZkApps

zkApp reference, endpoints, and links.

Mina has only two native transaction types: User Transactions and Internal Commands. Programmability and custom logic are achieved through zkApps - smart contracts based on zk-proof technology that are deployed off-chain. Effectively, a zkApp is equivalent to a dApp on Mina. For each zkApp, there's an on-chain representation in the form of a zkApp account.

zkApp transactions run through zkApp accounts which can also mint custom tokens. Each zkApp account has a set of account updates - fields that define how transactions run on-chain and how accounts are updated - permissions defining authorization configs for users to run a zkApp transaction, and preconditions - account and network conditions required for a zkApp transaction to run. Each zkApp account has 8 Account Update fields. When a zkApp transaction runs, these fields change, which results in the change of the zkApp account and the Mina blockchain at large.

Minascan shows a list of zkApp accounts and zkApp transactions.

The following endpoints are available for zkApps on Blockberry.

EndpointDescription
getZkAppTransactionByAccountAddressZkApp transactions are transactions run via zkApps - equivalents to dApps on Mina that are based on the zero-knowledge proof technology.
getZkAppTransactionsByBlockStateHashGet a list of all zkApp transactions contained in the queried block.
getZkAppTransactionsGet a list of all zkApp transactions on the Mina Blockchain.
getZkAppTransactionBalanceChangeByTxHashGet the account balance change brought about by the queried zkApp transaction.
getZkAppTxRawDataByHashGet details of the queried zkApp transaction in a raw JSON format by hash.
getZkAppTransactionByTxHashGet the queried zkAPpp transaction by hash.
getZkAppByAddressGet the queried zkApp by the address of its creator.
getLastVerificationKeyChangeCheck when the queried account changed the verification key last time. Verification key change may be, although not necessarily, an indication of scam activity.
getVerificationKeyHistoryCheck when the queried zkApp account changed the verification key.
