Account balance is increasing without transfers
Observe https://explorer.testnet.near.org/accounts/ethonnearclient08
It is receiving transactions that increase its state. The transactions do not have attached tokens. However, the balance reported by explorer is increasing, instead of decreasing. I would expect explorer to show the liquid balance, which is the balance minus locked tokens. Is it possible that we are adding locked balance instead of subtracting it?
Hmmmmm, that sounds very suspicious! There is no locked balance. Here are the RPC responses:

Notice that the amount has changed! @bowenwang1996 @SkidanovAlex @evgenykuzyakov WTF?
It is developer reward. When a contract is called, there is a 30% kickback from the transaction fee.
@bowenwang1996 where is it documented/announced? How can we observe it? Is it a matter of config? Will it require hard-fork to disable these rewards?

It is in genesis config (burnt_gas_reward). It will require a protocol change to disable this reward, but why do you think we should disable it?
@kcole16 @corwinharrell @vgrichina @khorolets @amgando FYI, the balance may increase with incoming function call transactions due to fees paid by the caller are partially rewarded to the receiver/contract account. We can observe the rewards through the State Changes (here is the transaction I use for this example):

The account balance before the transaction (block # 14041390) was:
2051294069168615931841357071 yoctoNEAR
The block that includes the transaction (block # 14041391) has the following balance for the account:
2051303276769537287641357071 yoctoNEAR (+0.0092 NEAR)
The block after the transaction was submitted (block # 14041392) includes the receipt for the transaction and thus the contract account receives another reward and the balance is now:
2051303677840417126541357071 yoctoNEAR (+0.0004 NEAR)

We cannot expose this information in the current Explorer due to the lack of receipts stored on the backend. With the new Indexer for Explorer we will be able to track these down (@khorolets we will need to dig down the state changes for gas rewards like this, validation rewards, etc)
why do you think we should disable it?
I somehow thought it was a temporary solution; now I see that it is a permanent economic incentive.
