Accounts
Overview
An Account is an arbitrary keypair capable of storing value on the underlying `Network`; also referred to as a signing identity. 
Accounts are capable of storing cryptocurrencies and tokens native to a specific Network, as well as  authorization credentials and cryptographic material on behalf of Provide users. An Account may be setup as custodial or non-custodial, and may be derived from a Wallet. If the Account is custodial then the platform will sign and broadcast transactions to the specified network on behalf of an authorized User or Application

This endpoint enumerates accounts used for storing cryptocurrency or tokens on behalf of Provide users managing cryptographic material (i.e., for signing transactions).
Balances are not returned here for performance reasons; see GET /api/v1/accounts/:id to get balance details in the native currency for the network and GET /api/v1/accounts/:id/balances/:token_id to get balance details for a specific token, if supported by the account and network.
