# How can I receive an on-chain transaction with Blink?

To receive an on-chain transaction using Blink, follow these steps:

1. Open the Blink app and click on `Receive`
2. Under the QR code click on `Onchain`
3. You can copy the address, share it, or show the QR code to the sender. Note that to avoid address reuse there will be a new address displayed when you have received a transaction on the address shared previously. The old address will remain valid to receive transactions on your account even when there is a new address shown.
4. Once the transaction has been sent, the transaction should shortly appear as `Pending` in your wallet. Click on the transaction to see it's \`Transaction Hash\`. Using the Transaction Hash (also known as TXID) you can see the details of the transaction in a block explorer like [mempool.space](https://mempool.space) and see when it is confirmed in a block.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://faq.blink.sv/blink-payment-methods/on-chain/how-can-i-receive-an-on-chain-transaction-with-blink.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
