How to getBalance of a dead/burn wallet?

Moralis General
#1

Hey!!

I am trying to get balance of a specific token inside a dead/burn wallet (0x000000000000000000000000000000000000dEaD)

Is it possible to do it trough Moralis?

This is the peace of code i am using:

const optionsDead = {chain: 'bsc', address: "0x000000000000000000000000000000000000dead" }
const balancesDead = await Moralis.Web3API.account.getTokenBalances(optionsDead);

const tokenAddressDead =  "0x1c2425f50a1e98d5631b223e56760d21bc840c53";
const tokenBalanceDead = await balancesDead.find((token) => token.token_address === tokenAddressDead);

Thanks!

You may get a tjj in out error for addresses that have too many transactions.

#3

I am getting an empty array. So with Moralis is not possible right now :disappointed_relieved:

#4

you get an empty array on first query or on the second part with the filter?

#5

Empty array on first (balancesDead) and undefined on second (tokenBalanceDead)

#6

Same if you try with the address that has only zeros?

#7

With only zeros after 40 seconds i receive an error:

POST https://.../server/functions/getTokenBalances 400

Ok, this is the timeout case, I would say that it doesn’t work.

I see, thank you!!!
Will do using old fashion 100+ lines of code :sob: :sweat_smile: :metal: :rocket:

#10

How do you do it that way?

#11

Using web3js =( Moralis will have it someday :nose:

#12

I mean what steps to you make to get that data?

#13

Basically using same getBalance that we have here. The difference would be in loading the required scripts, load abi via json.

When I get to this part of the code I can go into more detail about what worked and what didn’t.
