So what did you do, sent omg token to your btc wallet?

If that's the case you're out of luck

I don't know what omisego is? But I assume it's just a script kitty copy of bitcoin with similar rules. In which case there is nothing that can be done. Sorry man. :'(

the transaction should fail because it is not a valid address. dont need to worry. check back later

Hopefully it fails and they are returned. Unfortunately, you may be out of luck.

Thx for you answer,
i'm using blockchain as wallet  (ETH and  BTC wallet)
it's saying that i have received ETH ( for a amount that is not mine and i can't using them)
thx all

check it later bro, at this rate it's nothing we can do, just pray and don't lose hope , they return your omesigo if the transaction is denied.  good luck!

good for you.. :)

With this reply of yours, you have definitely saved a soul because in situation like the one OP his, he must have been so ashamed of himself to have to created an account for that purpose. I cant imagine what is going on in him mind now especially if the fund involved is a huge amount.

I actually didnt expect the transaction to go in the first place because they technology should have recognized that its a wrong token meant for something else and if that is not happening, then that is flaw in the design originally.,

I am sorry to say this but I think it is already impossible to get back your OMG coin back to your wallet as they are already considered to be lost just like being lost in the wide and open outer space. This is the reason why we should be careful by checking twice all the details of the digital currency we are sending and make sure that the wallet where we are sending it is of the coin we are sending and not of another currency. You are not alone with this problem though so I just advise you to charge it to experience so we be very, very careful next time.

Yes, and this is why step one of any transaction of size should be to first send a small test deposit to ensure everything is working as expected. This is even more true when you are new, but even for experienced people, it is easy to make a mistake. I would rather risk 1 small $10-$20 test transaction then end up losing $1,000's because of a silly mistake.

Thank you all for your answer,
If anyone of you know what happen  i would be happy to here it,

i think it will fails, you need to wait until it makes fails transaction by system because of wrong address. stay calm and see what happens  ;D ;D

Brother, you should have been more careful while doing the transaction. Crytpo currency transactions are risky and we should pay definite attention while making those transactions. The only thing you could do is ask the support team for assistance as they are the only ones who could help you out with this issue. Nothing other than this would help you out.

Thx brotherActually it worked

UP ?

Yep, it should work, as OMG is an Erc20 token, that means that you can transfer it to Ethereum addresses https://etherscan.io/tokens

Did the problem not yet to be resolved still? maybe you can please share your ETH address and BTC address so that people can take a look into it.
If you accidentally send your OMG token to your ETH address and blockchain.info didn't recognise, big chance they didn't support ERC20 token and so on.

or if you accidentally send it to your bitcoin address, well, it's impossible to be done since the address of ETH and BTC is really different. Don't know if this topic in the right section tho, supposed to be moved to altcoin section.

Thx X-ray   if it is not supporting ECR 20, my coins are lost ?
do you think that if i use my private key into a ECR 20 friendly application i will be able to see my OMG ?

I would suggest you to go to etherscan.io, insert your address in the top right side of the page.

You will see a page like this one https://etherscan.io/address/0x86fa049857e0209aa7d9e616f7eb3b3b78ecfdb0
Then, click on View tokens, and you will be able to see all the tokens you have, without inserting your private key.

Alternatively, you can use MyEtherWallet and insert the private key there.

Let us know!

It's saying that i have my Omisego maybe my wallet only support ETH but is not ECR 20 friendly i will try to insert my key on  myetherwallet.

Thx a lot

Well, I am happy, at least you are able to see them  ;D

I hope there is a way to get them back

As long as you have your private key, you could login to MyEtherWallet and transfer them.

If you sent it to blockchain wallet they don't support eth wallet yet and i think they don't give private keys for eth wallet. So it's lost.

Only for this reason, there are advices to all traders, whether they are expertise, the newbies or anyone that please do learn at best level to which you can afford to go. Learn the basics as well as some technicalities of bitcoin and especially about the transaction methods. So like you said, give a test drive of very small amount so that you can go for big transactions.

OMG coin is ERC20 token.

So for BTC address is should fail, as it's not compatible. if you can post the transaction we can take a look, but it really should fail.
As for ETH address, transaction will go through. and you will not lose the coin, as it's stocked on the ETH address. You can use the wallet or service that supports ERC20 tokens to see them.
