What Happens When Crypto Is Sent to The WRONG Address??

[@CoinGecko]

Have you ever experienced something similar to this? 😔😔

[@ajazulhaq7345]

Yes I sent my 527 usdt to bone contract address mistakenly

I'm a noob literally lost alots in trading because God hate me nothing go right for me, but damn how can someone make such a mistake from btc to eth network?

Same here back many years ago but ain't that much. Just $10 taught me a good lesson.

[@teru797]

@@finfame yeah only send small ammounts to an address first.

[@casinowiz007]

Send a test amount first. Also, after copying and pasting, double check first and last 3-4 characters/numbers match exactly.

[@teru797]

yep, too bad there aren't better safe guards that help make sure you're sending to the right address.

[@davearnold731]

Yes, always!!! Send the smallest amount possible. Double check it landed in the correct wallet THEN send the rest!

[@artvanderlay6974]

That's a good habit to get into unless you're stuck using Ethereum. Then it can get expensive. Still better than losing all your coins though.

[@peacefulsoul72]

The fees are too high. A test send 2as costing me 24 bucks

[@teru797]

@@peacefulsoul72 Wait until they are low. Set custom sat to 16 sats. maybe 20 I think. Basically send as low priority if time is not an issue.

[@user-zz7hh6tz5s]

this is so confusing,....how do you expect crypto to be widely adopted if issues like this occur?

[@AquarianAgeApostle]

Correct

[@StevenPringle-mu3zt]

Keep in mind that this is like the early Internet days this is the copper wiring, the pipes, the cement, the foundation being laid. These are the circuit boards and wires below the ATM. Once crypto is adopted it will be a simple depositing and withdrawing Fiat cash from an ATM

[@hanlin7024]

What issues lol, if you write the wrong address it will obviously go to the wrong person, just like writing the wrong email address or the wrong IBAN

[@Otome_chan311]

The same thing happens if you try to mail a letter to the wrong address BTW.

[@Tutanchat]

guidance in app & QR will do the job

[@1trompet146]

If you make a typo the most likely scenario is that the build in checksum isn’t correct, and the transfer won’t go through at all.

[@OnlyCompassionIsNeeded]

Please help me. I was stupid that I trusted this exchange without rigorous research.

[@IbadassI]

They really need to solve this problem before mass adoption. [Possible solution] I reckon you send to recipient, recipient acknowledges receipt, sends message to sender confirming something known to both (say passcode), sender then accepts validity. Only if all three occur does the transaction get finalised. Otherwise transaction does not finalise.

[@dajoaneke]

My friend sent BNB B from Binance to a BNB BEP2

[@ciprianstanciu7]

There's a 4th posibility : you initiated a transaction but your internet or power went out. Your wallet thinks you don't have that amount but everyone else doesn't know that so unless the wallet can rebroadcast the transaction on demand your funds are stuck. Happened to me :|

[@WestCoastFront]

If you send crypto on the wrong chain but from one cex to another cex... you can recover those funds... but you have to pay each cex fees to do so...

[@enam9000]

Lost 7 bitcoins about 4 years ago, it was my fault, lesson learned, I'm extra careful with what websites i use now.

On which address did you send?

[@dwdwone]

​@@axe3740How?

[@drinno8900]

So this money is lost to the system forever ? Is that like setting fire to paper money. wonder if it cause deflation??

[@Gamster420]

The last example isn't explained well. If i understand correctly: If you send ETH to non EVM, then it does sit on the chain under that address, but you cant generate the private key with you your etherium seed phrase? So that is similar to scenario 3?

[@Otome_chan311]

The actual answer is that chains are entirely unrelated except shared addressing in some cases. To send from eth to polygon you have to bridge the assets. Centralized exchanges typically do this automatically for you. If you select incompatible chains then it's up to the exchange what happens ultimately. Since they're handling the bridging. But wrong address = funds are lost. If you just select wrong eth l2, same keys are used everywhere so you can access bridged funds.

[@vivanity9750]

wait i remember when i downloadsd exodus and it already had 300usd of eth

[@WisdomGiven]

What if I sent wrapped-solana from my wallet to my coinbase Solana? The transaction went through but I can't see the money? Is there any way to get that money back?

[@overgroun]

talk to Coinbase about it. they may recover. Dont trust random people online who say they will recover. they are scammers

[@Otome_chan311]

If the TX shows that coinbase received it you should contact their customer support. If you use sol in self custodial wallet and send to the SOL address coinbase gives you, you should receive the funds fine. I've done this numerous times. Sometimes it takes a second for coinbase to show it.

Bottom line to sum it up. Send to the wrong address and you are shit out of luck whether it be $1 or $1miil. Thats the #1 problem with this whole system. no safe guards.

[@raphael8463]

Self crypto easily solve this problem by enabling users to send/receive crypto across any chain via a simple username of choice. No more sending to wrong wallets.

[@Otome_chan311]

This is just an inherent address problem. If you send a letter to the wrong mailbox it's gone forever. If you send an email to the wrong email address, the wrong person receives it. If you wire funds to the wrong bank account number, it ends up in the wrong place. This isn't a problem unique to crypto...
