 * `accountData.balance` — This is the account's balance of XRP, in drops. You can use this to confirm that you have enough XRP to send (if you're making a payment) and to meet the [current transaction cost](transaction-cost.html#current-transaction-cost) for a given transaction.
 
-* `validated` — Indicates whether the returned data is from a [validated ledger](ledgers.html#open-closed-and-validated-ledgers). When sending transactions, it's important to ensure that the results are in a [final](finality-of-results.html) state in a validated ledger before further processing the transaction. For more information about best practices for transaction processing, see [Reliable Transaction Submission](reliable-transaction-submission.html).
