Tether withdrawal records: why the network belongs on the list
After a withdrawal, four facts are worth keeping. The fourth is the one people forget, and it is the one an explorer needs first.
Four facts per withdrawal
Keep the transaction ID, the network, the destination address and the amount. A line in a note on your phone is enough. Add the time if you like, since support will ask for it.
The network belongs on the list because an explorer finds a transaction only on the network that carries it. Without the network, the ID is a string you have to try against four explorers.
Why records matter for Tether in particular
One coin on several ledgers means one amount can mean several different histories. Two withdrawals of the same sum a week apart may have used two networks, and only your own record says which.
Where an operator's own history falls short
A cashier's history shows what the operator recorded, and it may show a network label, a short ID or neither. It is not a substitute for your own record, which is the one you can hand to someone else.
