Robinhood Chain Transaction Pending
A pending Robinhood Chain transaction is one that your wallet has broadcast but that has not yet been included in a block. On a fast chain that usually resolves in seconds. When it does not, the causes are almost always one of three things: the fee is below what miners currently accept, the RPC your wallet is using is lagging, or the transaction was actually included and only your local wallet view is stale.
This guide covers how to tell those cases apart with Blockscout, and what to do without accidentally double-spending or paying twice.

Confirmed on Blockscout but pending in wallet
This is the most common false alarm. Blockscout is reading directly from the chain; your wallet is reading from an RPC that may be behind. If the hash is confirmed on Blockscout, treat the transaction as done and ignore the wallet's spinner. Restarting the wallet or switching RPC will clear the view.
Truly stuck: the nonce is blocking newer transactions
Because Ethereum-style nonces are strictly sequential, one stuck low-fee transaction blocks every later transaction from the same address. The safe fix is a replacement transaction at the same nonce with a higher fee — the speed-up flow does this. Sending an unrelated new transaction without clearing the old nonce will simply pile up behind it.
What we do not recommend
Do not clear your wallet's activity and re-broadcast the same transaction manually — you can end up double-spending if the original does eventually land. Do not raise gas dramatically on a very small transaction just to make it move if the same effect can be achieved by cancelling.
Steps
- 1Find the transaction hashOpen your wallet's activity view and copy the hash of the pending transaction. If your wallet does not show a hash, the transaction was probably not broadcast — retry from a working RPC.
- 2Look it up on BlockscoutPaste the hash into https://robinhoodchain.blockscout.com. If Blockscout shows it as confirmed, your wallet is simply out of date — refresh the wallet or switch to a different RPC.
- 3Check if the fee is too lowIf Blockscout does not know the hash at all, your RPC accepted the transaction but the network has not seen it, or the fee is below the current floor. Wait a short while first — do not immediately resend.
- 4Speed up or cancel safelyIf your wallet supports speed-up or cancel, use those flows — they replace the pending transaction using the same nonce, so they cannot double-spend. Do not send a fresh transaction from a different wallet or after clearing activity; a duplicate nonce with different data can leave you paying gas twice.
Frequently asked questions
Why is my Robinhood Chain transaction stuck pending? Usually because the fee is below what nodes currently accept, or because your wallet's RPC is lagging. Look up the hash on https://robinhoodchain.blockscout.com to see the real state. How do I speed up a pending transaction? Use your wallet's speed-up flow, which replaces the transaction at the same nonce with a higher fee. This is safer than sending a new transaction. Can I lose funds from a stuck transaction? The stuck transaction itself does not lose funds. The risk is duplicate transactions with new nonces, which can cause you to pay for the same intent twice.
