Transaction Details

Transaction Hash

Every transaction has a unique hash (transaction ID) that:

• Identifies your transaction on the blockchain

• Can be used to track transaction status

• Can be shared with the recipient for verification

• Can be viewed in the blockchain explorer

Viewing in Explorer

Click "View in Explorer" to:

• See transaction details on the blockchain

• Verify transaction status

• Check confirmation status

• View transaction on the public ledger

Transaction Fees

• Transaction fees are automatically calculated

• Fees are deducted from your balance

• Fee amount depends on network congestion

• Fees are typically minimal

Transaction Status

Your transaction can have different statuses:

• Pending: Transaction submitted, waiting for confirmation

• Confirmed: Transaction included in a block

• Failed: Transaction failed (insufficient funds, invalid address, etc.)

Security Tips

• ✅ Always verify the recipient address

• ✅ Double-check the amount before sending

• ✅ Start with a small test transaction for new addresses

• ✅ Verify you're on the correct network (Mainnet vs Testnet)

• ❌ Never send to addresses you don't trust

• ❌ Be cautious of phishing attempts asking for tokens

Troubleshooting

"Insufficient balance" error

Causes:

• Not enough tokens in your wallet

• Transaction fees exceed available balance

• Network fees increased

Solutions:

• Check your current balance

• Reduce the amount you're sending

• Ensure you have enough for fees

Transaction stuck/pending

Possible causes:

• Network congestion

• Low transaction fee

• Network issues

Solutions:

• Wait for network confirmation

• Check transaction status in explorer

• Verify network connectivity

• Contact support if stuck for extended period

Wrong address entered

Important: Transactions cannot be reversed!

If you haven't confirmed yet:

• Simply cancel and re-enter the correct address

If already sent:

• Unfortunately, tokens sent to wrong addresses cannot be recovered

• Always double-check addresses before confirming

Transaction failed

Common causes:

• Invalid recipient address

• Insufficient balance

• Network error

• Contract execution error

Solutions:

• Verify recipient address format

• Check your balance

• Try again after checking network status

• Review error message for specific issue

Best Practices

1. Test First: Send a small amount first when using a new address

2. Verify Address: Always double-check recipient addresses

3. Check Network: Ensure you're on the correct network

4. Keep Records: Save transaction hashes for your records

5. Monitor Balance: Keep track of your balance after transactions
