Description

lbry.tv users will have a single wallet, and the address page doesn't show amounts correctly when sending change back to itself. The received amount should be adjusted for this as well.

See https://explorer.lbry.com/address/bNAcah588ZCZAmyq879HjCjaPtvqHupjmt

You'd expect to see the sent amounts instead of a negative number. And received should not double count change received.

https://lbryexplorer.tech doesn't show this correctly either.

Research direction

Start at the address page for the example address in the issue and trace how inter-address transactions calculate sent and received amounts. Compare the output with the linked explorer pages. Done means sent amounts are shown as positive values and change sent back to the same wallet is not double-counted as received.
