Getting no data with RPC call for Masternode addresses

[Lysanthe]

What happened:

When using the RPC Calls: getaccount or accounthistorycount for an address with a masternode like { "jsonrpc": "1.0", "id": "1", "method": "getaccount", "params": [ "8WrcPiaoGhQgitWiBG6e3fW7dVTuZMvjot" ] } I do not get any results. That's the same for alle masternode addresses i tried.

When you look up the address in the blockexplorer you get data: https://explorer.defichain.io/#/DFI/mainnet/address/8WrcPiaoGhQgitWiBG6e3fW7dVTuZMvjot

What you expected to happen:

Do get Data from the RPC calls when using a masternode address

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible):

Use the RPC Call

What are your environment parameters:

Linux Debian OS 1.8.2 and 1.8.3

Anything else we need to know?:

Hey, this is working as expected as those RPCs return the account balances that are in account form. For UTXO balances, you can use the getbalance if the addresses are your wallet's, or scantxoutset otherwise.

$ defi-cli scantxoutset start '["addr(8WrcPiaoGhQgitWiBG6e3fW7dVTuZMvjot)"]'
