+## Bug: Unsafe Address.checksum() Return Value Check
+
+### Location
+[apps/explorer/src/lib/server/account.server.ts](apps/explorer/src/lib/server/account.server.ts#L169-L172)
+
+### Severity
+**HIGH** - This is a runtime bug that can cause crashes
+
+### The Problem
+
+In the `fetchTransactions` function (lines 169-172):
+
+```typescript
+const from = Address.checksum(row.from)
+if (!from) throw new Error('Transaction is missing a "from" address')
+
+const to = row.to ? Address.checksum(row.to) : null
+```
+
+### Why This Is a Bug
+
+According to the `ox` library (which provides the `Address` module), the `Address.checksum()` function **never returns null or undefined**. It always returns a valid checksummed address string or **throws an error** if the input is invalid.
+
+The current code assumes that `Address.checksum()` can return a falsy value (`null` or `undefined`), but it cannot. This means:
+
+1. **The null check is dead code** - it will never catch the error condition
+2. **Invalid addresses will not be caught** - if somehow an invalid address is passed, `Address.checksum()` will throw, but the try-catch is missing
+3. **Runtime crash instead of graceful error** - if an invalid address comes from the database, the handler will crash instead of returning a proper error response
+
+### Example of the Problem
+
+```typescript
+// If row.from is an invalid address like "0xinvalid":
+const from = Address.checksum(row.from)  // Throws error!
+if (!from) throw new Error(...)  // This line never executes - exception is unhandled
+
+// Expected behavior:
+try {
+  const from = Address.checksum(row.from)
+  // ... rest of code
+} catch (error) {
+  throw new Error(`Transaction has invalid "from" address: ${row.from}`)
+}
+```
+
+### Impact
+
+- **User-facing**: API endpoint crashes when encountering transactions with invalid addresses
+- **Data reliability**: Invalid transaction data in the database will cause the entire request to fail with a 500 error instead of gracefully handling the issue
+- **Maintainability**: Dead code makes the function confusing and harder to maintain
+
+### The Fix
+
+Remove the dead null check and wrap the `Address.checksum()` calls in a try-catch block to handle potential validation errors:
+
+```typescript
+let from: Address.Address
+try {
+  from = Address.checksum(row.from)
+} catch {
+  throw new Error(`Transaction has invalid "from" address: ${row.from}`)
+}
+
+let to: Address.Address | null = null
+if (row.to) {
+  try {
+    to = Address.checksum(row.to)
+  } catch {
+    throw new Error(`Transaction has invalid "to" address: ${row.to}`)
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Why This Matters for the Project
+
+1. **Data validation**: The database might contain corrupted or invalid addresses from upstream sources
+2. **User experience**: Better error messages help developers debug issues
+3. **Production reliability**: Proper error handling prevents crashes
+4. **Type safety**: The code should match what the API actually does
+
+---
+
+## Additional Context
+
+This pattern appears in multiple places in the codebase (5 occurrences found), indicating a systematic misunderstanding of the `Address.checksum()` API.
+
+All occurrences should be audited and fixed:
