Title: Lost Chainlink Tokens
Post by: Larry W on January 16, 2021, 05:20:37 PM
I sent Chainlink tokens from Binance to another exchange using the BSC network. I find out that they do not support the BSC network.
 Does Anyone have any idea how to get my Chainlink tokens back? Thank you!

Someone with the same issue posted this few days ago on Reddit, Is that you?

Well, there is no way to recover unless the exchange you sent the funds, and you can consider its almost lost forever.

Contact exchange support for help. If the amount is not too big, forget it.

You know the exchange network for chainlink deposit does not support BSC network. Why did you make a deposit?
Any deposit on all exchanges has a statement that if you make a deposit that is not supported by the exchange or a different address, the coins deposited will be lost.
So nothing can help and your funds are non-refundable.

But address should be different and when sending the chainlink you should be told it's wrong address, maybe I'm wrong? Or this BSC network is also ERC20 smart contract address? Anyways there is no way to get it back I believe, every exchanges have this warnings whenever you tried to make transactions, next time have more patience and check things out first

you're wrong dude since there's a BSC token that pegged with link token

you can see that the contract address of this token by visiting this link https://bscscan.com/token/0xf8a0bf9cf54bb92f17374d9e9a321e6a111a51bd
It looks like he was using it and then send it into the another exchange site that doesn't support BSC token pegged with LINK.

You are correct. A BSC token that pegged with Link token. Is there anything I can do?
 I was trying to send them to the exchange Nexo.

thats a big mistakes from the OP, by the way the OP or the others people should learn from this
thats why we must double check our deposit address, to minimize any kind of deposit issue

AFAIK, you can get your LINKs back if you send them to wallets that have the private key. But if you sent it on an exchange, it is almost impossible to get it back. Exchanges mostly warn you with red letters when you deposit. In this case, whatever you say to the support will not work. Sorry, but you most likely lost it.  :(

Most of the time exchanges will not allow you to get back your token because that was a mistake at the first place and you should know first if the exchanges are accepting that kind of transactions. I also suggest to move on if that is just a small amount of money, but if its big try to fight for it but never expect too much.

The only way was try to their support contact, maybe you will need to do some kyc or pay some amount for administrational fees. So it will be pretty hard to fight for but it kinda worthy if your token amount is big.
Just try it! Hope the problem solved soon.

If the transaction went successfully and it was sent to your Nexos address. There is no way to get it but ask for help from Nexo.

Binance can't do that much or doing any technical on your own.

If nexo didn't support BSC deposit and that will be useless. his money was on the LINK BSC form. If he was using the link normal deposit address and then it may become another story but this is talking about the possibility for nexo to give his link. It's almost impossible to ask the coin that they didn't make it visible on their exchange site.

More Likely they are now lost forever because they don't support each other network. That's why before sending some altcoins, you need to fully check every crucial thing before sending it off to the network. This is a common mistake among investors and holders, I hope you only sent a small amount of Altcoins. You just need to move on and used that mistake as an experience. Don't worry it's not only you who does such kinds of things, there are many people out there who wrongly sent their coins to another blockchain network.

I've heard stories like this before, and they don't have a very happy ending. The only rational solution is to really contact the exchange support service and give them all the necessary data to verify your transaction. It is better to study the rules for transferring money on any exchange before sending it.

I'm not sure you will get the tokens back unless the team are too nice to their customers and if the token worth huge amount of money, talk to the team they may be able to help solve your problem, have a positive mindset, wonders may happen

Currently the value of your lost token is 22K dollars, a costly lesson for you.

Did you try to contact the customer care of Nexo exchange? They surely can give it back if they want but exchanges rarely help the people to recover their lost cryptos, but atleast you should try what you can do.

They do not want to help in such a situation. When they withdraw from their exchange, they repeatedly warn them not to send funds to another address. Since you made a mistake. Now there is no way but to have regular contact with the exchange. So keep in touch with them regularly and see what they say.

is it still possible to return? I think for transaction problems on the exchange I will never be able to return. but you can try asking the exchange support contact for help with your problem

Before sending a token to an exchange, the exchange in question will always warn against sending a token to a wrong address, as it might be lost, some exchanges even go further to having a minimum deposit you can send to an address, when you violate that as well, your token will be lost. Well, since no one is above mistakes and there is no harm in trying, maybe you can still try to contact the customer care to see if there is any way out for such issues, as i believe they will be in a better position to direct you or tell you what to do.
Lastly, in order not to raise your hopes high, you can consider it as lost while trying every other option available, also try and be persuasive, don't back down easily.
