Crypto transactions can sometimes remain pending for minutes or even hours. ๐Ÿ˜Ÿ

But donโ€™t panic โ€” a stuck transaction doesnโ€™t necessarily mean your funds are lost.

Find your Transaction ID / TXID and check it on the blockchain explorer for the network you used.

Look for:

  • โณ Pending / Unconfirmed
  • โœ… Confirmed
  • โŒ Failed / Reverted

A transaction may be delayed because the blockchain is experiencing:

Never send another payment just because the first transaction appears stuck.

First confirm its status on the blockchain. Otherwise, you could accidentally make a duplicate payment.

If you sent crypto through an exchange and the transaction has not been broadcast or is showing a platform-specific error, contact the exchangeโ€™s official support.

โš ๏ธ Never give anyone your seed phrase, private key, password, or 2FA codes.
