Hello my friends!
Unfortunately I sent 0.5 BTC to a wrong wallet via Blockchain.info!

Is there a way to get this back?
The transaction has not yet been confirmed!

If your transaction is marked as replaceable then you could restore your recovery seed in Electrum and use it to create a transaction spending the same inputs. Paste your transaction id into this block explorer and see if "Replace-by-fee (RBF) enabled?" is equal to "YES". If it says 'NO" then unfortunately there is nothing you can do to reverse that transaction.

Transactions sent on blockchain.info wallet do not support RBF. Which means, the transaction can not be cancelled, and neither can it be reversed. Try to use electrum, you can turn on the RBF for cases like this, provided if the transaction has not been confirmed, because if the transaction is confirmed, even RBF will not be able to reverse it into your wallet.

I am aware of that. That's why I suggested restoring your wallet using your recovery seed.

Are you referring to "Bump fee" under the context menu when you right-click on that transaction? You won't be able to reverse that transaction using that feature anyway. I was not sure if your blockchain.info wallet marked that transaction as replaceable, so that's why I suggested checking it on a block explorer in my post above before giving you any further instructions.

According to the screenshot you posted, unfortunately, your transaction does not have RBF enabled, so you won't be able to replace it. I am sorry, but there is nothing you can do except contacting the owner of that address. Consider using Electrum as your main wallet so that you could have a much better control of your funds.

No. Without RBF, there is almost no way to replace that transaction.

The only way you could achieve this, would be to find a friendly miner with a LOT of hashrate... and ask them to mine a replacement transaction directly for you (and probably pay them a hefty fee to do so)... and then hope they find a block and include your new transaction in it before your original transaction confirms in a block mined by another miner.

Your chances of successfully executing a "double-spend" these days is practically zero... any replacement transaction would be rejected by the majority of nodes on the network and fail to propagate properly, so no miners would see it.

That took so long because the transaction was "non-standard" and likely required some "tweaking" of node/mining software to be able to include it... most miners would shy away from doing something like that... "if it ain't broke, don't fix it". I would guess because they were nervous about wasting a lot of time/resources and possibly generating an invalid block.

But yes, unless you have an existing deal/contact with a mining pool, trying to sort that out before the original transaction gets confirmed would, I imagine, be somewhat difficult. Also, based on the OPs screenshot showing 75 sat/byte fee... and fees are down around the 20 sats/byte level again, I'd say it's all rather moot... I'm sure the original transaction has already confirmed.

So, the OP is left with the single option of asking (very nicely!) whomever owns the address they sent coins to, to kindly send them back
