What happens if my internet connection drops while sending crypto?
If the transaction wasn't confirmed before you went offline, it didn't go through. If it was already confirmed, it continues on-chain regardless.
Blockchain transactions have two stages: broadcast and confirmation. If your connection drops before the transaction is broadcast, nothing happens – check your wallet history and retry. If it was broadcast and confirmed before the drop, the transfer is complete, and the funds are already in the recipient's wallet.
When you reconnect, check Wallet → transaction history for the current status. A transaction that's confirmed on-chain is final – connection drops don't affect it retroactively.
