How to check an Ethereum transaction
A transaction on the Ethereum blockchain is technically initiated by an external account owner (not a contract). For example, if User A sends 1 Ether (ETH) to User B, the action of debiting from one account and crediting to another changes the blockchain’s state.
The change specifically takes place on the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM). Ethereum transactions need to be broadcast to the entire network, and any node can broadcast a request for the execution of a transaction on the EVM.
After broadcasting the request, a validator can then execute the transaction and propagate the state change to the whole network. Transaction fees are incurred during the process of validation, and each transaction must be included in a validated block. There are different types of transactions on the Ethereum network:
Regular transactions: transactions occurring from one account to another.Contract-execution transactions: transactions interacting with deployed smart contracts (the “to” address is a smart contract address).Contract-deployment transactions: transactions with no “to” address (the data field is simply used to deploy the smart contract’s code).How to check the status of an Ethereum transaction
