- ``timestamp``: The Unix time when the block was created. It's provided by the node that created the block.
- ``transactions``: A list of the transactions included in the block.
- ``node_pubkey``: The public key of the node that created the block.
- ``voters``: A list of the public keys of federation nodes at the time the block was created.
It's the list of federation nodes which can cast a vote on this block.
This list can change from block to block, as nodes join and leave the federation.
- ``voters``: A list of the public keys of all cluster nodes at the time the block was created.
It's the list of nodes which can cast a vote on this block.
This list can change from block to block, as nodes join and leave the cluster.
- ``signature``: :ref:`Cryptographic signature <Signature Algorithm and Keys>` of the block by the node that created the block (i.e. the node with public key ``node_pubkey``). To generate the signature, the node signs the serialized inner ``block`` (the same thing that was hashed to determine the ``id``) using the private key corresponding to ``node_pubkey``.
