### 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
