Pending transaction

A pending transaction is a transaction that has been created or broadcast but has not yet reached the network's required confirmation or finality state.

Published and reviewed: 2 October 2026.

Definition: A pending transaction is a transaction that has been created or broadcast but has not yet reached the network's required confirmation or finality state.

A transaction can remain pending because of fee conditions, nonce ordering, network congestion, propagation delays or application-specific behavior.

How this concept appears in Terenval Wallet

Terenval Wallet users should interpret pending status in the context of the selected network rather than repeatedly sending a duplicate transaction without understanding the cause.

Important: Check the transaction hash and network explorer before retrying or replacing a pending transaction.
