rwa_multichain.supply_changes isolates issuance and redemption — the events that change how much of an asset exists — from ordinary wallet-to-wallet movement. Grain: one row per mint or redeem event.
What it answers
- How much of an asset was minted or redeemed, and when
- Whether net flows are positive or negative over a period
- Whether onchain mint and redeem events reconcile against what an issuer or custodian reports on their own books
Table schema
Use amount_signed for net flow
amount is always positive, so summing it across both change_type values gives gross throughput, not net issuance. amount_signed carries the sign, which makes net flow a plain SUM:
Relationship to transfers
transfers covers movement between holders. This table covers supply entering and leaving existence. The two are complementary and should not be unioned: a mint is not a transfer from anyone, and adding them together double-counts the balance change.
