It's not everyday that you get tot receive 1 eth to your wallet and there could be a reason since this is no small amount will try to trace the owner and thank him for sending it to me, and if he says he wants it back and was sent by mistake I will just send the half this is to teach him a lesson that he must always check the address and for the time and effort I spent looking for him.

LOL, what if he wanted it to sent to you in full because he will going to use it for medications. Are you still going to send the half of it? In my case I will negotiate with the one to teach him a lesson to double check first before going into transaction. If he has no good reason for him to get back the eth to him then i will send 80% only and 20% is to teach him a lesson. This I think the better way than having it 50% which is relatively high and of course due to pandemic we all need finances but this could not be the reason to own money mistakenly sent by you.

It's pretty common when someone sent you something by mistake and in this case cryptos. People make mistakes such as that but it never happened to me before. I mean, I might send them back to the sender's address. Or maybe the rightful owner will make some announcement saying they want their money back and they can provide proof that it's theirs and accidentally sent to the wrong address. Nonetheless to say, some might just keep them in their waller lmao. Well, your call.

Sending Crypto has no chargeback you are sending Crypto out of confidence in the receiver, I will just let it remain in my wallet until such time it's free to own it if the sender takes effort to look for the answer and find me maybe will split because it's his mistakes, not mine everyone should know the basic of sending and failure to do will result to big penalty or bad consequences.

This is the reason why you have to be extremely careful when it comes to cryptocurrency and you have to be in the right state of mind before you make any transaction. i always cross check the address im sending to over and over again before i finalize the transaction to make sure there is no error.

If someone sent me 1 ETH , I will sent him back to the sending address after deducting eth gas fee.
We all know you wont do that. If someone sends me 1 ETH, I would hold it. But I will keep monitoring https://etherscan.io/ comments section of my address. Maybe someone will write something there, that he accidentally sent me funds and after some negotiations, I would send them back. But honestly, I would take this 1 ETH as a gift.

Original post should be about Warning people to check wallet address very well before making transactions, I've never did the mistake once and I've made countless transactions in the past, sending to wrong address is stupidity to me

I have often imagined this, and never happened. lol If someday someone wrongly sends ETH to my personal wallet. So I will use it for trading, maybe somewhat evil. But in my opinion it is lucky for me, because there is no fault from me. all purely the fault of someone else sending to the wrong address.

It all depends on the circumstances. But I'm inclined to just keep this 1ETH - and call it the " stupidity tax." If I received one coin from a stranger it means that he made a mistake and it will not hurt to teach him a lesson so that in the future he was more careful. It is better for this person to lose 1 ETH in my favor than to lose 100 ETH in the future if they fall into the clutches of scammers. This is an honest payment for a useful lesson.

if it happens to me accidentally then I will voluntarily return it back to the original owner. but I think it's impossible, I haven't even heard of any mistakes in transactions eth, I mean without exception the wallet keys are known to your closest people.

I will do the same thing as you if on my address there are no comments about 1 eth that I receive, I will give at least 1 week if not 1 ETH I will use it for trading.

I used to make a mistake that you said, at that time I only lost 0.4 ETH but at that time the value was very valuable to me, and at that time I always hoped that the owner of the wallet I sent would return the money because I really needed it, but all hope I was useless because he didn't return it. If that happens to me now then I will return it to that address because I'm afraid he will need money like I used to
Well, you can say that in an ideal world. In the real world full of poverty and greedy people (amidst the beauty and the goodness of the world of course), you will find people who have a finders keepers attitude. You made the mistake of sending a big amount of ETH then good luck. That is what it is, sorry to be the bringer of the bad news but that is how I find people nowadays, a mixture of good and greedy. Good samaritans and One eyed pirates. If you lost something good luck who will pick the thing and pray it goes back to you.

Honest to goodness opinion right here. Some call this real talk, finders keepers, and stupidity. Definitely many of us will choose that route. What if you received 100 ETH then I doubt many will return it, unless you will be afraid somebody might research and try to find who owns the said ETH address which is near impossible to trace, unless you wrote it on the internet that you own the wallet. Anyway, the scenario is somewhat possible though in different ways, like a businessman losing his case inside a taxi and the briefcase has 40,000 dollars on it - 100 ETH. Life is cruel if you are not careful.

Only newbies will do that if it's a newbie then I will give it back to him but if he is holders for a very long time I want to know the exact reason why this things happen, I always double check the the first three and the last three of the character before I sent it and the biggest question is how did he got my wallet, if he has a good reason then I will send it back if not only half of the amount.

Very few people can ever return this money to the sender, unless he has too much money

i think it will also depend on the financial situation of a person. i do not speak for myself by the way.it is logical that if you are in a financial bad situation, its tempting to keep funds that you accidentally receive, because it is not a bank transfer but crypto, which gives much more anonymity. the sender should be more careful it think. but that is an ethical discussion.

It's more ethical discussion than anything else, and I agree with you, will someone return money or not will depend on financial situation of that person. Who has financial problems will take that money and cash it out quickly, who is has no financial worries will do the right thing. And we can't blame anyone here, sender who made a mistake should learn from that and if he is lucky maybe someone will return money to him, but if that doesn't happen he shouldn't blame anyone for his own mistake.

Life is cruel if you are not careful. If it is 100 ETH then it is a different question. 1 ETH to lose is unpleasant but not critical when the loss of the same 100 ETH due to a stupid mistake is no longer a joke. If the question was about such numbers, then I would return the money with a deduction of my fee (the "tax on stupidity") in the amount of 2-5%, depending on the politeness and friendliness of this person. Yes, you can return the entire amount in full, but then it will not teach a person anything (and will not be profitable for you). And so he will remember such a mistake and pain for the rest of his life but will thank fate and you for the fact that his money returned to him with little fee.
