Generating Compliance-Ready Audit Reports

Institutional users require verified, immutable logs of all on-chain activity. This guide explains how to extract and format Rootstock data for regulatory submissions.

Prerequisites

• Indexing Service: Access to The Graph or a local Rootstock node.
• Data Tools: Python or JavaScript for post-processing JSON logs into CSV/PDF formats.

Getting Started

1. Querying Historical Data

Use GraphQL to pull specific transaction histories for your institutional Safe or wallet.

{
  transactions(where: { from: "YOUR_SAFE_ADDRESS" }) {
    id
    value
    timestamp
    gasUsed
  }
}

2. Verifying Transaction Finality

For compliance, you must prove that a transaction is irreversible. On Rootstock, "Deep Finality" is achieved after a certain number of block confirmations (~100 blocks for absolute certainty). Use a block explorer API to attach "Block Confirmation" metadata to your reports.

Troubleshooting

• Missing Events: If you are querying smart contract events (e.g., Deposit), ensure your indexing service has fully synced to the current block height.

• Price Conversion: When reporting dollar values, use a historical price oracle (like CoinGecko API) to map the rBTC/USD price to the exact timestamp of the transaction.
