Why Transactions Fail and How to Resolve Them

In the decentralized world of Bitiness, transaction failures can occasionally occur — especially during network congestion or volatile market conditions. The good news? Most of these issues are easy to resolve with a little knowledge and a few quick steps.

Let’s explore the main reasons transactions might fail on Bitiness and how to fix them.


🔍 Common Reasons for Failed Transactions

Problem
Description

Insufficient Gas Fee

Gas limit too low or wallet doesn’t have enough BNB to cover the cost

Low Slippage Tolerance

Market price changed beyond your slippage setting

Token Not Approved

You need to approve the token before it can be used in a swap

Outdated Wallet State

Cached wallet data or pending transactions interfere with new actions

Incorrect Network

Wallet is not connected to BNB Smart Chain

DApp/Wallet Bugs or Lag

Browser, extension, or UI bug causing miscommunication


✅ How to Fix Failed Transactions

1. Check Your Wallet Balance

  • Make sure you have enough BNB to pay for the gas.

  • Even small transactions require gas.

2. Increase Slippage Tolerance

  • Go to the Bitiness swap settings.

  • Set slippage to a higher value (e.g., from 0.5% → 2%).

  • Try again with a slightly higher slippage, especially for volatile tokens.

3. Approve the Token First

  • When using a token for the first time:

    • Click “Approve” and confirm the transaction in your wallet.

    • Once approved, proceed with the swap.

4. Use Correct Network: BNB Smart Chain

  • Open your wallet (MetaMask, Trust Wallet)

  • Switch to the BNB Chain (Chain ID: 56)

5. Clear Pending Transactions

  • If a previous transaction is stuck:

    • In MetaMask: click the pending transaction → “Speed Up” or “Cancel”

    • If still stuck, reset account in Settings > Advanced > Reset Account

6. Refresh & Reconnect Wallet

  • Refresh the Bitiness page

  • Click “Disconnect Wallet” and reconnect cleanly

  • Clear browser cache if issues persist


🧠 Pro Tips to Avoid Failures

Tip
Why It Helps

Keep 0.02–0.05 BNB in wallet

Covers gas for multiple transactions

Avoid peak network hours

Reduces stuck or slow transactions

Use “Fast” gas option in wallet

Prioritizes your transaction on the network

Don’t queue multiple transactions

Wait for one to confirm before starting another


🛑 Warning: Gas Fees Are Charged Even for Failed Transactions!

Even if a transaction fails, the BNB gas fee is still consumed by the network validator. This is why it’s important to set correct parameters and avoid unnecessary retries.
