help; wrong address

[kaylin1987]

Dear readers,

Hopefully you can help me solve the problem. Today I withdrew an amout of USDT (TRC20) from Binance to a wrong TrustWallet address. The address I used was TUSD (ERC20).

On etherscan I can find the transaction but I didnt received it on my wallet. Please help me out!

Kind regards,
Kaylin

Move this thread to altcoin discussion.
So far you withdraw into your noncustodial wallet (trust wallet), likely you did not lose the coin sent. Your question is not that clear, go to your account on binance, look for the txid of your transaction, if you can share it here, we can be able to know maybe you used TRC20 or ERC20 to send the coin. Or, you can track that yourself by checking the trust wallet address you sent the coin to from Binance.

Try to check your trust wallet, trust wallet support these two tokens, check if your balance is reflecting the coin sent already. So far the wrong address is still actually from your trust wallet, the coin should reflect, you suppose see it reflect on USDT (ERC20).

I don't think this suggestion will work but you can try it.

What I think is to export the private key from trustwallet you can try to check this guide on how to export private key

- https://community.trustwallet.com/t/where-is-my-wallet-private-key/71185

Once you have the private key import it to any TRC20 wallet or any Tron wallet that supports the USDT TRC20 token.

Let us know if it will work.

Trust wallet supports TRC20 tokens, but he sent it to ERC20 which trust wallet also support. The coin suppose to reflect on ERC20 USDT balance on Trustwallet.

The address I used was TUSD (ERC20).

It's why i don't like Binance when it comes to making withdrawals. They can easily confuse a newbie with USDT(TRC20) USDT(ERC20) BEP2 and BSC allover the place

Again I am just wondering how the hell they let a withdrawal go through yet ERC20 and TRC20 are 2 incompatible address formats

This is not Binance fault, even if you want to withdraw either ERC20 or TRC20 token on Binance, it will not be specified, ones you use the right address, be it ERC20 or TRC20, it will work and the token will be sent to the right address.

It is not possible. This image is from Binance after attempting to withdraw Ethereum using Tron address, also it will show the message for the respective tokens.



kaylin1987 is not getting something right. So far he sent the coin to Binance, he would have seen the it reflecting on the balance, or the coin wasn't sent from Binance at all. That was why I requested if he/she can post the txid.

Anyway in case it really happened and he wants to recover the USDT (TRC20). He should carry out the following procedure

◼ Get the recovery phrase of the wallet he sent the coins to. Open Trust Wallet app >> Click on Settings >>Click on the Wallets (something like Multi-Coin Wallet 1) >> Click on the 3 dots beside Multi-Coin Wallet 1).

You will be able to see a 12 word phase, copy it

example

Code:

civil silver raven elevator observe grab right double multiply nominee age seat

◼ Open https://iancoleman.io/bip39 and disconnect you device from the internet

◼ Change the setting from 15 to 12 words


◼ Write your 12 words inside the BIP39 Mnemonic box

◼ Under Coin Change coin type to Ethereum - ETH

◼ Change the derivation path to 32 by clicking on BIP32

◼ Right below, you will be able to see derived address with their respective public and private keys
as shown in the image



◼ Check and compare if the first address is the same as the one you sent your USDT (TRC20) to. If yes. Congratulations!! Copy the private key and Import the wallet on trust wallet via the option of "I already have a wallet" instead of "Create new wallet" and select Tron

◼ Select Private key option, paste your private key and import the address. You should be able to see and transfer your USDT

The reason the user has not been responding can be as a result of him to have seen the coin reflecting on his Trustwallet balance, or the coin is not successfully sent from Binance at all and remain on binance balance.
