# 5.1 Understanding Transaction Structure

In Spicenet, transactions are structured as part of the `CallMessage` enum. This structure defines the various types of operations that can be performed within the Spicenet ecosystem. Let's break down the `CallMessage` enum for the Bank module:

```rust
use sov_bank::CallMessage::Transfer;
use sov_bank::Coins;
use sov_bank::TokenId;
use sov_bank::Amount;

pub enum CallMessage<S: sov_modules_api::Spec> {
    CreateToken {
        salt: u64,
        token_name: String,
        initial_balance: Amount,
        mint_to_address: S::Address,
        authorized_minters: Vec<S::Address>,
    },
    Transfer {
        to: S::Address,
        coins: Coins,
    },
    Burn {
        coins: Coins,
    },
    Mint {
        coins: Coins,
        mint_to_address: S::Address,
    },
    Freeze {
        token_id: TokenId,
    },
}
```

Each variant of this enum represents a different type of transaction:

* `CreateToken`: Used to create a new token on the network.
* `Transfer`: Moves tokens from one address to another.
* `Burn`: Destroys a specified amount of tokens.
* `Mint`: Creates new tokens and assigns them to an address.
* `Freeze`: Prevents further minting or burning of a specific token.
