How to check your wallet activity on the blockchain explorer
Etherscan allows you to search and track the Ethereum blockchain for transactions, addresses, tokens, prices, and other activities taking place on the Ethereum blockchain. Each network has its own block explorer, but they all function similarly, so the guidance below will apply to whichever site you access.
To check your account details on Ethereum Mainnet, please enter your public address into the search bar on etherscan.io, and you will see all of your account activity and transaction details.
Accessing the block explorer directly from MetaMask
You can jump straight to your account's page on the block explorer from MetaMask by opening your account details:
- Open the account selector at the top of the screen.
- Select the three vertical dots next to the account you want to check, then select 'Account details'.
- Select 'Networks'.
- Select the QR code icon next to the network you want.
- Select 'View on Etherscan'. The name of the block explorer shown here updates according to the network you choose.
After you enter your MetaMask public address into the block explorer or follow the link in MetaMask itself, you'll see your account's page.
Below shows an example on Ethereum Mainnet. Your ETH balance, its current fiat value, and the total balance of all your ERC-20 tokens are displayed. You will also see all of the account's transactions.
The same balance shown here should be reflected in MetaMask. If you see a token balance on the block explorer but not in MetaMask, make sure you've added it, using the steps in this article. If you're still having issues finding the tokens or your ETH balance isn't the same in your MetaMask wallet, see this article.
