How to check an Ethereum transaction on a block explorer?

Navigating Ethereum Block Explorers: Search Options, Transaction Details, Address Types, and Recommended Ethereum Block Explorer Links.

Ethereum block explorers will show information about the latest transactions and recently confirmed blocks.


A search bar lets you find a specific transaction address, block number, token ID, or smart contract address. You can also search for ERC-20 tokens, such as USDC and ERC-721 non-fungible tokens (NFTs). 


A transaction hash will show the confirmation status, block number, fee, gas price, timestamp, sending and receiving addresses and total value.  


Additional information is available depending on the address type. Contract addresses will show the token type and protocol code, whereas wallet addresses will show the transaction history, token transfers and internal transactions.


Some explorers tag known entities such as exchanges and contract deployers so they can be easily tracked.
