I am new to bitcoin and there is one thing which I don't really understand is the Total Received and Final Balance. I have searched some public addresses of `rich guys` on BlockChain and all I see is that they have high Total Received of BTC like 6.5xxx and their final balance is 0.12xxx.
Why is that so? Have they spent bitcoin from their address/wallet? Or have they transferred their bitcoin to other addresses? But why isn't the final balance completely zero and left some small amounts like 0.12....?
It means they didn't spend all their inputs, but did sent away most of his bitcoin..
Lets say he once received 6.38 bitcoin, and once 0.12 bitcoin.
His total received at that time would be 6.5, so would his Final Balance be, until he transfers his 6.38 Bitcoin to someone else, or another adress he owns, for example in his own wallet.
The final balance will be lowered to 0.12, but received will stay the same.
So yes, your assumption was correct. It just means they spent most of their original inputs.
Do you have the ID of the adress you are talking about? I might be able to clear it up for you?
