End-of-Lesson Summary

You have learned that

• The ThorClient is the entry point for all blockchain reading on VeChainThor.
• The hasCode flag (found via getAccount()) identifies if an address is a smart contract (true) or a user wallet (false).
• The txOrigin found in event metadata is the address that initiated the transaction, identifying the original deployer.
• VeChainThor currently uses the Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) consensus mechanism.

Congratulations! You can now build a script to identify smart contracts and their creators! You understand the difference between the account that signs a deployment (txOrigin) and the contract address itself.

Next, we’ll learn how to track the VET and VTHO balances of these accounts to see how much "fuel" they're using! 🚀
