Due to the technical nature of blockchain networks,
transactions cannot be canceled or modified once they are broadcast to the network.
If a transaction shows a Pending status, it means it is still waiting for confirmation by the network.
You must wait until the transaction is either confirmed or becomes invalidated (effectively canceled).
In some cases, if a transaction remains in "Pending" status for an extended period,
it may be automatically dropped by the network, depending on network conditions.
[How to Cancel a Pending Transaction on the Ethereum (ERC20) Network]
While direct cancellation is not possible, you can indirectly cancel a pending transaction by submitting a new transaction with the same nonce and a higher gas fee.
Follow the steps below:
- In the D'CENT Wallet, send a small amount of ETH
- Set the recipient address to your own ETH address
- Manually set a higher gas fee than the original pending transaction
- If the new transaction with the higher fee is processed first,
the older pending transaction will be automatically replaced and dropped from the network.
