Checking on your Links Status

Peanut Links you have created are cached in the browser local storage. Because they are cached in your browser storage, you can check the Links created and see how many of them have been claimed.
⚠ Peanut does not store your Links. Information about Links that have been created live entirely within your browser local storage. Switching browser profiles, clearing browsing history or accessing from a phone or different device will result in the information being lost. However, you can still recover the funds even from lost links after a 24hour window.
