🚀 How to find a transaction HASH and what are cryptocurrency networks?
You sent cryptocurrency, and the seller suddenly asks:
“Please send the TxID and specify the transfer network!” 🤔
Don’t worry — let’s break down in detail what this “network” is, why it’s important, and how to quickly find your transaction in any blockchain!
📌 What is a cryptocurrency network?
A cryptocurrency network (blockchain) is a decentralized database where all transactions of a specific cryptocurrency are recorded. Each cryptocurrency has its own network, so it’s important to select the correct one when transferring funds.
🔍 Why is this important?
If you send cryptocurrency using the wrong network, your funds could be lost or delayed. That’s why it’s crucial to always double-check the network before making a transfer!
📌 Examples of popular networks and cryptocurrencies
Here are some of the most common networks and the cryptocurrencies they support:
🟠 Bitcoin – Bitcoin (BTC)
🔷 Ethereum – Ethereum (ETH), USDT ERC-20, USDC ERC-20, and other ERC-20 tokens
💎 Binance Smart Chain (BSC) – BNB, USDT BEP-20, CAKE, and other BEP-20 tokens
⚡ Solana – Solana (SOL), USDC, NFTs, and other SPL tokens
🌀 Polygon – MATIC, USDT, USDC, and other tokens
💸 XRP Ledger – Ripple (XRP)
🧠 Cardano – Cardano (ADA)
🐶 Dogecoin – Dogecoin (DOGE)
🪙 TRON – TRON (TRX), USDT TRC-20
🧱 TON – Toncoin (TON)
📌 What is a Blockchain explorer?
🕵️♂️ A blockchain explorer is a website that allows you to view and track transactions of any cryptocurrency in real-time.
With a TxID (Transaction Hash) in a blockchain explorer, you can check:
📬 Sender and receiver addresses
💰 Amount and transaction fee
✅ Transaction status
🗓️ Date and time of the transfer
📌 How to find the sending network and TxID?
Here’s how to do it in popular services:
1️⃣ MetaMask 🦊
Open MetaMask → go to Activity.
Click on the transaction → “Copy transaction ID”.
The network (Ethereum, BSC, Polygon) is shown at the top of MetaMask.
2️⃣ Trust Wallet 📱
Open Trust Wallet → select History.
Tap on the transaction.
Copy the transaction hash.
The network name is shown at the very bottom.
3️⃣ Exchanges (Binance, Bybit, OKX, etc.) 💱
Go to the “Transaction History” or “Withdrawal” section.
