Last night I have sent out 20 BTC by mistake. How do I revert/cancel the transaction ?

https://blockchain.info/tx/67276898e3757b0c214af1e535dfcbbd3550636892408f7301831650cc06a605


Update: Thanks to the forum members, I found a way to contact the address owner. Now, I have asked for a refund - http://forum.cloudmining.website/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=42. Surprisingly, it took one minute for me to send the coins to them and even after 24 hour is over, they are asking 24 hours more to take the decission to return my coins !!!

Unfortunately, it is not possible to revert Bitcoin transaction. Mind to explain what "mistake" did you do last night? Missclick? The 20 BTC was sent to another address just 7 second after receiving it. https://blockchain.info/address/19wN6jYvQSkW2acaSZXBavYAfde31YJrYJ

What do you mean by 'mistake'? Did you send to wrong address, or have you entered wrong amount by mistake?

You need control over the place you sent it, where have you sent the funds? they need to send it back.

I was a bit drunk yesterday. I was trying to purchase 20 Giga Hash (2x10Ghs) hash power. By mistake I selected 20 Tera Hash (2x10Ths) from the drop down and clicked the link and it was gone. My friends told me this is the biggest bitcoin support forum. So if I tell my problem here, they can return my transaction.

Where did you get the address from?

You can't cancel Bitcoin transactions. Unfortunately it's very likely the money is gone. You need to find out whoever you sent it to and ask if they will send it back.

I have a feeling this is a troll.

Guy is buying thousands of dollars of advanced mining hardware and doesn't even know some of the basic functions of the bitcoin protocol. Nah.

Damn , that really sucks mate . That's why I don't drink.
From what company did you bought the hash power? your last hope is trying to contact them and ask for a refund else then that .. you can't do anything unfortuntly because transaction in Bitcoin are not reversable.

As long as you haven't sent to the incorrect/unknowns address, there's a chance that merchant will refund you the bitcoins. Unless you bought on one of the cloudmining ponzis, then they may not be keen to refund.

Just contact the support and/or write in the official thread of the site you purchased from

It's not wrong address issue, but the wrong amount. He probably knows who did he send those bitcoins to (unless really drunk).

Then its just a customer support issue lol.

Or consider as the most  expensive drink and digest it. You should contact the customer support and ask if they can send it back.

Ouch! I'd recommend setting the password on your wallet to something you won't be able to type drunk.

Maybe there is a market for a breathalizer activated hard wallet.

To the OP.  Bitcoin is like cash.  It would be like going into a store planning on buying a $1 TV and you bought a $10K TV in cash.  There is no way to "reverse" cash.  Your only solution is to talk to the company you sent the funds to.  If they agree to send the funds back and cancel/modify the order then you are fine (no different than cash).  If they don't well that is a problem (once again no different than cash).

Never operate with Bitcoins while drunk, lesson learned and one less Bitcoin user for life because now he's going to hate it for life.
