You can request GDAX to give your LTC back to you(if that BTC address is a multi signature address since LTC and BTC address with multisig is the same, thus making BTC address private key importable to LTC, giving gdax a chance to be able to access it in ltc wallet as well). If the transaction cannot go through the blockchain, it might also be returned to you eventually. It might help though if you could post the txid here, so that we can check it in LTC block explorer and blockchain.

I've never experienced this problem but could you check this out - https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/6sfnl2/segwit_has_been_locked_in_congratulations_everyone/dleu77d/?context=7
Also, you have no access on your private key (btc address) on gdax, right? Sounds like the returned 15% is the compensation for the wrong address.

I have never met a case before. But in my opinion, if you use  BTC address instead of LTC address, amount LTC coin will not be transferred because the alternative BTC address will not exist. Perhaps amount LTC coin are still on binance, you try contacting binance support for their help. Goodluck

Try check this thread and read their comment/post Accidentally sent LTC to BTC address. Since you have some trouble with it, then probably that thread can help you.

Just by experience I will say that no ...
No one exchanges will do this if the transaction amount is less than $ 5,000.
In some exchanges, it is even higher!

THX for answer. There is Txid 0e1d4f85bbbd3cb08965f5769bcd831aba6b1f9099738a313682d950d377acdd
And i have already contacted both supports and there are answers.

GDAX
Due to the nature of cryptocurrency protocols, it’s not possible to cancel or reverse a cryptocurrency send to an address meant for a different type of currency.
I am extremely sorry, but these funds are not recoverable. I apologize, and wish there was something more we could do.

BINANCE
Thank you for your reply. Because of withdrawal has been successfully transaction please contact receiver.

Well the address isn't going to be on the other network, so it shouldn't have been allowed to be withdrawn to -- but anyway, now that it is done it should simply reverse as the coins aren't going to be accepted/used by the other wallet.

It should go back without any issue, though it's going to take some time for the wallet to take the money back and say that they're able to use it again. Just be patient and explain this FULLY to both supports on the entire issue.

Nice to hear that Thanks for your answer 👍🙂

The only way is to contact Gdax support team and see whether the support is able to help to retrieve your LTC. I have a feeling Gdax does not help with such cases but no harm trying. Good luck.

So guys i didnt successed. Both of supports said they cant help me, so i think i will never get my coins back.

Its weird because as far as I know they aren't compatible so there is a chance that you can get it back. Of course transactions are irreversible if they are on the same network, as explained by @squatz1

I suggest you explain fully further the mistakes you have done. May I ask how much is that amount though? For me whatever the amount it can be reverse as long as both party really wanted to extend help. You may want to try again and see if they are going to realized that its possible to reverse it. Goodluck.
