Hi,

Not sure what to do with this, and if it will resolve itself.

But I send ETH to an address for an ICO that was ongoing, only I accidentally send a high gas limit so the payment wasn't accepted ( this was 18hrs ago or so ).
The payment just keeps bouncing around.

Does it need to run out of gas before the payment is returned, or can the owners of the ICO do something about it ( I did contact them, but the haven't responded yet ).

Thanks Smiley

Don't think anything can be done if it keeps bouncing around the network. Can we see the transaction ID so we can get a clearer picture of the situation?

Not big fan of ethereum, so im not sure but, protocols of crypto are written in a way, that when there is too much bounce there must be a timeout. So it will get cancelled/returned eventually Smiley
