Question
Currently, balance changes due to operations performed outside of the EVM (for instance, a transfer via the balances pallet) are not reflected in the corresponding ethereum block. This is understandable, but it means that if you point an EVM block explorer at a chain with frontier, the explorer's view of balances will most likely be incorrect (as a given block fetched via ethereum RPC would not have a transaction corresponding to the substrate operation, and so the explorer wouldn't expect any state change in a given account's balance).
We've thought of a few potential solutions:
Implement special handling on the block explorer's side
Somehow create "mirror" transactions on the ethereum side for balance changes that occur outside of the EVM (though it's not clear this is actually feasible)
Encouraging users to use only ethereum interfaces to interact with the chain (this helps mitigate the issue, but isn't a real solution)
Is there anything that can be done within frontier to make it easier for EVM block explorers to track balances? Or otherwise, any suggestions for alternative solutions?
