<p>Yes, it is possible. Block explorers such as mempool.space allow you to search by address, and they will show you all transactions involving that address, including unconfirmed ones.</p>

<p>Is it possible to search <em>pending</em> bitcoin transactions by their &quot;to&quot; address?</p>
<p>I looked at several mempool navigator/explorer type services and they all seem to allow searching by transaction ID but not to/from address?  (e.g. <a href="https://mempool.space/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://mempool.space/</a>)</p>
<p>Why is this? Are the to/from addresses not visible on pending transactions? (I assume they are visible)</p>
<p>If the addresses are visible on pending transactions why do mempool search tools not allow searching by address?</p>

<address><mempool><mempool.space>
Is it possible to search for an address (rather than a transaction ID) in the bitcoin mempool?

(Asked by: username_0 on 2023-11-11)

Is it possible to search *pending* bitcoin transactions by their "to" address?

I looked at several mempool navigator/explorer type services and they all seem to allow searching by transaction ID but not to/from address? (e.g. <https://mempool.space/>)

Why is this? Are the to/from addresses not visible on pending transactions? (I assume they are visible)

If the addresses are visible on pending transactions why do mempool search tools not allow searching by address?
