How do you verify a transaction status(including timestamp, resource consumption(bandwidth & energy), nos of confirmations) using Tronscan-- Examples, Screenshot?
with some images, I will be showing you all how to verify and confirm the timestamp, resources consumption(bandwidth & energy), (nos of confirmations) using the Tronscan page.
- Step 1: The first thing you do is to log in to the Tronscan website by using this link on your mobile phone browser.

After you log in to the website the image above will be what will be displayed on the platform.
- Step 2: After you log in to the website, in order to search for an account, the easiest way is to input the hash address for the account you are trying to find, you can input the hash address(TCEo1hMAdaJrQmvnGTCcGT2LqrGU4N7Jqf) on the search space which is located at the top of the webpage.

- Step 3: After you input the hash address on the search bottom, you then click on it which will send you straight to the account, on the account, you will be able to view all information and transaction that have taken place in the account such as the sender and the receivers address, it also displayed the timestamp of the transactions, it also displayed current status of all transactions.

The image above it shows that to they are several columns showing Token Balances, transactions, transfers, blocks, and so on, in order to view any of them you have to click on the columns above to display them, in my case I clicked on the transaction columns which shows all information and details of all transactions that have taken place on the account.

The image above shows the hash address of the sender and also the receiver, it also shows the timestamp when the transaction takes place, it also displays the status of the transaction showing either the transaction is successful or not, all this gives the accurate information of that account which also tells us that all users don't have to be afraid of been duped because each transaction records will be displayed for all party to see and no user can change the transaction when it has been sent.
