FeeSettings

[Source]

The FeeSettings object type contains the current base transaction cost and reserve amounts as determined by fee voting. Each ledger version contains at most one FeeSettings object.

   "Flags": 0,
   "LedgerEntryType": "FeeSettings",
   "ReferenceFeeUnits": 10,

}

FeeSettings Fields

The FeeSettings object has the following fields:

Name JSON Type Internal Type Description
LedgerEntryType String UInt16 The value 0x0073, mapped to the string FeeSettings, indicates that this object contains the ledger's fee settings.
BaseFee String UInt64 The transaction cost of the "reference transaction" in drops of XRP as hexadecimal.
ReferenceFeeUnits Number UInt32 The BaseFee translated into "fee units".
ReserveBase Number UInt32 The base reserve for an account in the XRP Ledger, as drops of XRP.
ReserveIncrement Number UInt32 The incremental owner reserve for owning objects, as drops of XRP.
Flags Number UInt32 A bit-map of boolean flags for this object. No flags are defined for this type.

Warning: The JSON format for this ledger object type is unusual. The BaseFee, ReserveBase, and ReserveIncrement indicate drops of XRP but not in the usual format for specifying XRP.

FeeSettings ID Format

The FeeSettings object ID is the hash of the FeeSettings space key (0x0065) only. This means that the ID of the FeeSettings object in a ledger is always:

4BC50C9B0D8515D3EAAE1E74B29A95804346C491EE1A95BF25E4AAB854A6A651
