Consider whether or not we want to trust the full node by default for post commands

[cwgoes]

e.g. sending a transaction

I think perhaps not - otherwise a full node could lie about sequence number, account number, etc.

I thought the plan was to do merkle proofs for account querying? You would then have sequence number, account number, etc.

[rigelrozanski]

Well - the sender needs to sign the message anyways - so if the signed message doesn't make the sequence number amounts etc. the message would just fail (would fees be deducted however? - I don't think so because we check the signatures before deducting the fees)

meh, so I don't see how this is really an issue, the worst a node could do would be not broadcast your transaction

[ValarDragon]

Fees won't be deducted if the sequence number is invalid, so I agree, this does seem like a non-issue as long as your connected to multiple full nodes.

Closing this as the lite client proof system is undergoing a refactor.
