waitForTransactionReceipt #

Waits for the Transaction to be included on a Block (one confirmation), and then returns the Transaction Receipt. If the Transaction reverts, then the action will throw an error.

The waitForTransactionReceipt action additionally supports Replacement detection (ie. sped up Transactions).

Import #

import { waitForTransactionReceipt } from 'viem/public'

Notes #

• Transactions can be replaced when a user modifies their transaction in their wallet (to speed up or cancel). Transactions are replaced when they are sent from the same nonce.
• There are 3 types of Transaction Replacement reasons:
  • repriced: The gas price has been modified (ie. different maxFeePerGas)
  • cancelled: The Transaction has been cancelled (ie. value === 0n)
  • replaced: The Transaction has been replaced (ie. different value or data)
