2.3. Transactions#

The Transactions class is available in all explorers.

2.3.1. Sync Usage#

from bloxplorer import bitcoin_explorer as explorer

result = explorer.tx.get('f29e151e71db58ade22be066afafdc59ed7df8195e3944a5e577b275dc37bf94')
print(result.data)

2.3.2. Async Usage#

from bloxplorer import async_bitcoin_explorer as async_explorer

result = await async_explorer.tx.get('f29e151e71db58ade22be066afafdc59ed7df8195e3944a5e577b275dc37bf94')
print(result.data)

2.3.3. Result#

Both usages will output the same result data. Example output:
