On this page
TRONSCAN is the main TRON block explorer. With a transaction ID — or just an address — you can see in seconds whether a transfer went through, where it went, which token moved and what it cost. This guide shows how to find a transaction and read every important field.
What you need
- Transaction ID (also called TXID, hash or transaction hash) — a 64-character string of letters and digits. Wallets show it in the transaction details; exchanges show it in the withdrawal history once the withdrawal is sent.
- Or the address that sent or received the funds.
Find the transaction
- Open TRONSCAN (tronscan.org) — check the address bar; fake explorer sites exist.
- Paste the transaction ID into the search bar and press Enter.
- No ID? Search the address instead and open its Transfers list — USDT transfers are under TRC-20 transfers.
Read the key fields
| Field | What it tells you |
|---|---|
| Status / Result | SUCCESS, or FAILED with a reason (e.g. OUT_OF_ENERGY, REVERT). |
| Confirmations | Whether the block is confirmed/solidified — see TRON confirmations. |
| Time | When the block was produced (UTC). |
| From / To | Sender and recipient addresses. For USDT, the To in the token transfer is the recipient, not the USDT contract. |
| Token transfers | Which token moved and how much. Check the token's contract is real USDT: TR7NHqjeKQxGTCi8q8ZY4pL8otSzgjLj6t. |
| Energy / Bandwidth used | The resources the transaction consumed. |
| Fee / TRX burned | TRX burned (0 if staked or rented energy and free bandwidth covered it). |
| Fee limit | The maximum TRX the sender allowed to burn — important for OUT_OF_ENERGY. |
Tracking a USDT TRC-20 transfer
For USDT the transaction is a call to the USDT contract, so the page has two layers:
- the transaction itself — from the sender to the USDT contract;
- the token transfer inside it — from the sender to the actual recipient, with the amount.
Always check the token transfer: amount, recipient, and that the token is real USDT. A screenshot or a "TRONSCAN" link sent by someone else isn't proof — search the ID yourself.
Common situations
- Success, but the recipient sees nothing → check the network and address; see USDT not showing.
- FAILED → the reason is on the page; see why a TRON transaction failed.
- Not found → it was never broadcast, or it's on another network; see transfer stuck or pending.
- Success, token isn't USDT → you received a fake; see fake USDT.
Checking an address on TRONSCAN
The address page shows balances (TRX and tokens), resources (energy, bandwidth), transfers, and the account's permissions. Permissions matter for the multisig scam: if they point to another address, whoever controls that address controls the account.
Tip: check any address in one step
Our address check summarises an address — balances, activation, USDT blacklist status, fraud flags, transfer cost — without reading raw explorer data.
Quick answers
Is TRONSCAN safe? It's a read-only explorer — searching doesn't need a wallet. Never connect a wallet or enter a phrase on a site that only claims to be TRONSCAN.
Can TRONSCAN cancel or refund a transaction? No. It only displays the blockchain.
Why can't I find my exchange withdrawal? The exchange hasn't sent it yet, or sent it on another network.
