# Transaction broadcast

## Definition

Transaction broadcast is the act of submitting a signed transaction to one or more network nodes so it can propagate through the peer-to-peer network or execution infrastructure.

## What it means in practice

Broadcast does not equal confirmation; the transaction may still be pending, rejected or replaced depending on network rules.

## How this concept appears in Terenval Wallet

After Terenval signs and broadcasts a supported transaction, subsequent inclusion and confirmation are controlled by the network rather than the wallet.

**Important:** If broadcast status is uncertain, check the transaction hash before resending to avoid duplicates.
