Transaction Lifecycle

PENDING APPROVAL

waiting_for_approval

The transaction is pending approval by the designated approvers. The approvers are those designated by relevant policy rules.

PENDING SIGNATURE

approved

The transaction was approved and waiting for the relevant signer (initiator/API signer/end user) to sign it.

WAITING TO BE PUSHED

signed

The transaction was signed by Fordefi and is waiting to be sent to the blockchain.

WAITING TO BE MINED

pushed_to_blockchain

The transaction was signed and pushed into the mempool and is waiting to be mined.
Note: Transactions are mined in the order they were submitted to the mempool, per vault and chain.

QUEUED

queued

Transactions in Ethereum-based blockchains are mined in order, based on the nonces that were allocated to them. In case there is already a transaction from the same vault in the WAITING TO BE MINED or STUCK state, any new signed transaction will be displayed as QUEUED, to differentiate it from the first one (per vault and chain) that is pending mining.
* Transactions with sequential nonces can be mined in the same block. In such a case, the transaction will transition from QUEUED to MINED.

MINED

mined

The transaction has been mined - meaning the transaction has been added to the blockchain. Not enough blocks have passed to be considered COMPLETED.

COMPLETED

completed

The transaction was completed successfully.

STUCK

stuck

The transaction is considered stuck. In Fordefi, a transaction becomes STUCK after it has been in the mempool for over ten minutes. This is usually caused by low fees submitted with the transaction. See Accelerate a Transaction and Cancel a Transaction.

ACCELERATING

accelerating

The transaction is being replaced by a transaction with exactly the same parameters and a higher price.

CANCELING

canceling

The transaction is being canceled and, in its place, a new effectless transaction is being submitted.

ACCELERATED

accelerated

The accelerating replacement transaction was mined. Hence, the original transaction was accelerated successfully. See Accelerate a Transaction.

CANCELED

canceled

The canceling replacement transaction was mined. The original transaction was canceled successfully. See Cancel a Transaction.

ABORTED

aborted

The user who initiated the transaction aborted it. It is possible only if the transaction is PENDING APPROVAL or PENDING SIGNATURE (approved). Afterwards, the transaction is pushed to the blockchain and aborting is not possible anymore -- only cancelation.

DROPPED

dropped

A transaction is DROPPED if, within two minutes after it has been sent to the chain, it is not mined.
Currently only on the Solana blockchain.

ERROR PUSHING TO CHAIN

error_pushing_to_blockchain

An error occurred and the transaction was not pushed to the blockchain.

MINED REVERTED

mined_reverted

The transaction has been mined but reverted -- meaning the transaction has been added to the blockchain. Not enough blocks have passed to be considered COMPLETED REVERTED. Usually, the transaction is reverted because of an error in the contract or the way in which the transaction was generated.

COMPLETED REVERTED

completed_reverted

The transaction was reverted. Usually, this is because of an error in the contract or the way in which the transaction was generated.
