Your description assumes that we know what you're talking about. But we have no idea. What is an "old id wallet"? What "account" are you talking about? What is the "it" that vanished?but i cant retrieve it due to new address can i change address at blockchain? or is it unretrivable ? need help with this one ! The short answer is this: If you have, or have access to, the private key associated with the Bitcoin address the funds were sent to, then you can access those funds. Otherwise, they're lost.

There are nearly a dozen commenly used wallets, and each behaves a bit differently. Without knowing which one you are using, it is difficult to give useful advice. So, what wallet are you using?
Bitcoin-QT? Electrum? MultiBit? Armory? https://blockchain.info/wallet? Coinbase? MtGox? CampBX? localbitcoins.com? BTC-e? Silk Road? Something else?

Post by: -Mk23- on August 02, 2013, 04:27:19 AM Lol @ that picture. I think you may be out of luck. If you can't access the id that controlls your wallet because its so long and random ie blockchain id's, that u can't remember it, then you can't send the coins in its address. No one can.
-Copy and paste- it saves lives. Other wise it may just take a moment to confirm Title: Re: wrong id was given when buying btc now its just sitting in blockchain? Post by: dondon on August 02, 2013, 04:49:02 AM Sounds like it could be gone, hope you didn't lose too much
