• General Account: Each public key/private key pair constructs an account. Each account has its own blockchain recording all engaged transactions. Account owner has authoritative control over transactions related to this account.

• External-owned Account: When an account owner issues one Smart Contract, the General Account becomes an External-owned Account and simultaneously generates an Internal-owned Account. The External-owned Account holds the ownership of all assets related to this Smart Contract and is able to issue more than one Smart Contracts.

• Internal-owned Account: The issuance of a Smart Contract from the External-owned Account generates the Internal-owned Account. This new account shares the same feature as the General Account, including Send and Receive. Sending the Public Token to the account will activate an Internal-owned Account and trigger the smart contract execution. The transaction will be recorded in a Transaction Block under the Sender Account and the Smart Contract Account.
