#### Description

This table contains virtual operations created by the blockchain when the @null account balances need to be zeroed.

The [@null](https://hiveblocks.com/null) account is a special account used to burn assets and its balance should always be null.

Each time assets are sent to the [@null](https://hiveblocks.com/@null) account, their balances must be reset to zero.  This virtual operation is issued per-block processing that clears null account balances.
