Transaction hash lookup
Crypto
Choose the network named by the source, then paste the transaction hash, ID or signature. The tool checks its format and opens the record in that network's explorer, with a short guide to reading it.

How to read it
Match the record to the claim
Check the full ID and network first. Compare the record's date and the addresses or program named by the source. If no record appears, check that the copied ID and network are correct before drawing a conclusion.
Separate execution from interpretation
A successful transaction describes execution on that network. It does not identify a real person behind an address or establish that an investment was profitable or a project is safe.
Read the action, then return to the post
Look at the relevant transfers or instructions, their assets and amounts, and the fees. Decide which part of the post the record supports and which parts still need another source.
Keep the conclusion within the evidence
- The selected network controls the explorer link. A matching ID format does not identify the network or establish that a transaction exists.
- An execution record does not identify a real person, prove profit or establish that a project is safe.
- Explorer labels and token symbols are aids to navigation. Match the underlying contract, mint or transaction details with the specific claim.
