1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Wrongly sent ETH to BTC Address on: December 30, 2017, 09:42:14 PM
Guys,

By mistake i sent my ETH from an exchange to my BTC Address at Blockchain. The exchange shows that the transaction is "Approved" whereas i have not received anything in my BTC Address at the Blockchain. I know it's my mistake that i wrongly copied the address but what are the expectations from this transaction ahead?

Is it possible to recover my ETH? Please revert, need help!

Thanks.
I am even surprised that the transaction went through in the first place I am sure that the exchange converted the money but if the transaction has been approved then you should have received some bitcoins if you didn't get it think you should contact the support staff.


I reached out to the support team and they informed that the transaction had failed at their end. While, they did mark it "Approved" in my panel but when they executed it ahead, it failed. Thus allowin for a return in my wallter - only when i raised a case on all social media platforms Cheesy !!!

Yeah sounds like that exchange has very poor checks in place if it will allow an ETH withdrawal to show as approved to a BTC address. The formats of the addresses are totally different, like putting a zip code in a country field, a basic check should have given you an error and aked you to check again.

But here is a lesson to you an others. BE CAREFUL WHEN YOU HOLD MORE THAN ONE CRYPTOCURRENCY.

This time you were lucky, you tried to send a currency to the wallet of an incompatible currency. If for example you had sent BCH to a BTC address or another similarly compatible currency working off the same algorithm you WOULD have LOST your coins.

Take care. Check and check again. Cryptocurrency can be very unforgiving. But glad you got it back. Happy new year.


Yeah, that was a lesson in my face !!!

Was doing an online transaction involving cryptocurrency for the first time. Though i did notice the address thing earlier while pseudo-practising this stuff Tongue .....but when the actual time came, in a hurry, i simply placed the wrong address.

Thankfully the New Year didnt start on  bad note Smiley Happy new year to you all !!

The transaction shouldn?t go through when the exchange send ETH to your BTC address.

Did you try contacting the support of the exchange? The support should be able to look into this issue for you.


Currently in my Exhcange panel, it shows that the transaction is approved. I tried writing to Exchange - reply awaited.

But what could be the time lag when the Exchange can find out that the transaction would not be possible? In the backend (for exchange), will it bounce back?



@newinbtc: I have checked for my ETH wallet and BTC wallet public keys on the domains like etherscan.io and Blockchain - but no transaction history appears.

Start collecting proof documents .like Screenshot of Approved message Compulsory, Your Last ETh balance details , Trade history , They will ask you soon. You need to send all details in email With proof for faster response customer team of exchange  It me take some time but you will get your money back ,
can i get name of that exchange is this popular exchange ?


Thanks for some hope shown there :-)

It's an Indian exchange www.pocketbits.in

By mistake i have sent my ETH from an exchange to my BTC Address on Blockchain. Exchange says that the transaction has been "Approved" but there's nothing inmy BTC wallet. I know it's blunder but what are the expectations ahead from this transaction?

Is it possible for reversal or refund?
