          # Transaction

          A transaction is an action on the blockchain on behalf of the account.

          Transactions can be sent only from an account — thus, any transaction can be associated with some account.

          There are several transaction types.

          Each transaction has a timestamp and a unique ID.

          All transactions, with the exception of the genesis transaction, have versions.
