Incorrect wallet balance after compensation request issuance?

[devinbileck]

Here's a brain teaser that I am struggling to explain at the moment. I need to review it tomorrow with a fresh mind, but creating an issue so as not to lose track of it (and maybe get another mind to review it).

I was testing a scenario where I had submitted a compensation request for 100 BSQ and had just enough BSQ to cover the fees, but not enough to vote (where I found #2622).

Here is the sequence of events (starting from a balance of 0 BSQ):

• Receive 10 BSQ
• Submit compensation request for 100 BSQ, minus 2 BSQ for fee
  [balance of 8 BSQ]
• Send remaining 8 BSQ
  [balance of 0 BSQ]
• Compensation request approved, BSQ issued
  [at this point I would expect to have a balance of 98 BSQ, but the wallet balance indicates 100]

Adding up the amounts shown below (10+98-8) gives us 100. But calculating it based on the sequence of events (10-2-8+98), gives us 98.

When making the compensation request you burn 2 BSQ as fee and issue 100 BSQ. I think the transaction list aggregates that to 98 BSQ. The sum makes sense, you have 10, burn 2, send 8 elsewhere, issue 100, ie 10 - 2 - 8 + 100 = 100.

Yes agree to @sqrrm. Seems all correct to me.
BSQ added: 10 + 100 = 110
BSQ removed: 2 + 8 = 10
Sum: 100

Ah, that makes sense. Thanks!
