How to use a blockchain browser to query transaction records? Step by step tutorial for beginners
This article is a zero-foundation Xiaobai exclusive blockchain browser query tutorial. It explains the whole process in plain English. There is no nee…
After the transfer, I don't know if it has been received.
If you want to check records, you are afraid of clicking on the wrong website and not being able to understand the data.
In fact, the block browser checks transactions exactly the same as checking the express delivery number.
The first time I checked, I stepped in several pits.
After a long time, I couldn't find it, and I almost entered a phishing website.
Today, I will break down the whole process and teach you step by step.
Pure dry science popularization and does not involve any investment or transaction guidance.
Newbies follow suit and start with zero mistakes.
1. Understand two basic words first, without memorizing the principles
. The first one: transaction hash (TXID)
will generate a series of exclusive characters for each transfer on the chain.
It is equivalent to the express delivery number and is unique.
Use this to check records for the most accurate and fastest.
The second one: Which blockchain does the public chain
transfer through, such as ETH chain and BSC chain.
It's like the logistics company chosen by express delivery.
If you choose the wrong chain, you will definitely not find the record.
This is the easiest pit for novices to step on, and there is no one.
2. Step 1: Select the right regular block browser and
don't search for links, let alone click on advertising pages.
The copycat browser either cannot be found or it is a scam.
Keep these two in mind when using regular browsers:
Etherscan for ETH chain; BscScan for BSC chain.
Searching for the full name directly is the safest way to enter the official website.
I clicked on the advertising link and worked hard for half an hour in vain.
Don't be greedy for newbies and look for the official entrance.
3. Step 2: Find the search box, copy the query information and
open a regular browser. The search box is the most conspicuous on the home page.
Don't randomly order other menus, the more you order, the more confused you will become.
Take out the transaction hash that you copied in advance.
Key reminder: Never enter manually.
If a character is missing or a letter is wrong, you can't find it.
Copy and paste directly, and check for extra spaces after pasting.
I entered the wrong digit manually before, and I checked it countless times but found no results.
4. Step 3: Query and understand the core information
, paste the hash, and click the search button.
In a few seconds, the transaction details will be loaded.
Newbies don't need to look at complex data, just focus on these four points.
1. The transaction status
shows Success, which means that the transaction was successful.
Display Fail means that the transaction failed and the funds will be refunded.
2. The transfer address
can be seen at the transfer address and transfer address.
Check whether it was your own operation.
3. The transaction amount
clearly shows the amount of the transfer.
4. The handling fee
is also the on-chain Gas fee, which is equivalent to the transfer freight.
5. Another query method: Use the wallet address
if you can't find the transaction hash, you can also use the wallet address to check.
Copy and paste your wallet address into the search box.
You can find all transfer-in and transfer-out records at this address.
Suitable for newcomers who want to check historical bills.
6. Newbies are stepping on high-frequency traps, so you must avoid transactions where
the chain and browser do not match
the BSC chain, and go to the ETH browser to check.
It's like checking Yuantong Express with SF Express number, but you can't find it.
2. Check the chain transaction immediately as soon as the transfer is made
, and there is a delay.
I checked it as soon as I submitted it, but there is a high probability that it will not be linked, and the check will have no results.
Wait patiently for 3-5 minutes before checking.
3. Entering the
wrong unofficial browser of a phishing website will steal information and defraud funds.
Only recognize official domain names and do not click on unfamiliar links.
4. When the information has spaces, or the
hash or address is not fully copied, it often contains spaces and missing characters.
After pasting, take a look and delete unnecessary spaces.
7. The last few sentences remind that
the block browser is just a query tool and has no risks.
As long as you choose the right official website and do not disclose private information.
Query records are completely secure.
There are three core steps: selecting the right chain, entering the right official website, and losing the right information.
Newbies should operate slowly for the first time and check it again.
Transaction records can be easily checked.
