Hi, could use some help.

Made a mistake by sending some Bitcoin to a BitcoinCash wallet. Sent from Exodus to Electron Cash. The transaction completed on the blockchain, but no balance in Electron Cash wallet. (obviously) Is there a way to recover it? Or just learn from the mistake?

Thanks for any help.

Unfortunately, just learning from the mistake, I hope it wasn't a big amount.
I suggest always sending a small amount for testing it works, then you can send more.

Good luck.

I don't think this can help you get your bitcoin back.. do you have control to the address from your bitcoin cash?
If you have a control to your electron cash wallet you should have the mnemonic seed phrase or backup private key from electron cash and try to import it into electrum..
if you see your balance in electrum you are lucky but if this method not work its your bad luck there is no other way to recover it..

Your BTC is recoverable. Get the private key for the address you sent to, and import it into a BTC wallet.

If you have private keys to that address, you can recover the coins. Else, it's gone!
