Hi All
How do you recover your ADA coins that are sent in the wrong address?
You canāt transactions canāt be reversed. No different to bank transfers or handing over cash
It may be lost as you cannot actually reverse the action, however there may still be a solution
Probably need to offer a bit more info,
e.g. who owns the address you sent them to?
can you request they are sent back?
did you send the ADA to a different token address by mistake?
was it sent to an exchange ? (probably contact their customer services and ask for assistance)
What do you mean a wrong address
p.s. donāt put any personal information down i.e. how many ADA your talking about etc.
I sent the ADA to a different token address by mistake?
This was an exchange, instead of copying ADA address i copied BTC address
15 000 ADA, i was making use of my local exchange to an international exchange. instead of me copying ADA address to be sent too, i copied BTC address
Firstly i would contact the exchanges and try to get through to someone who looks after customer relations.
As it was an exchange (as opposed to some random address, where you have no relationship) it would be nice to think they have some loyalty to look after their customers, so despite any warnings they may have about sending to incorrect address etc., you made an honest mistake, so i would be asking how they can help (to determine if itās defn been lost, i ask this as we donāt know how they operate custody). On the goodwill side youāre a client, what steps could they help with to reward your loyalty as a customer.
Secondly even if the funds canāt be saved they may even make an ex-gratia payment to you to make up for your loss, itās a great opportunity for them to gain some fairly cheap marketing for how they look after their customers
Good luck

Itās impossible to send a token from one blockchain to another. Iām surprised your exchange allowed this action to go through.
Your ada hasnāt left the exchanges address, so I would just contact your exchange and ask them to show your ada in your account again
Most reputable exchanges donāt allow you to do that as itās not even possible

So did you ever got your ADA back? Iām curious since something similar happened to me a couple of days agoā¦
You sent ā³ to another block chain? The only thing we have discovered is in binance where binance let you send what appears to be ada to their block chainā¦ firstly let me be clear, that is not ā³, It will simply be their own token they are making appear as ā³. The actual ā³ is still held and owned by binance.
For any chance in recovering it you will need to speak to binance on how to do that.
binance is misleading to end users, they are known to be misleading. For example their 17% returns on ā³ was false advertising.
It is impossible to send crypto from one block chain to another. Itās like trying to save a file on one PC to a different PC not connected to the Internet or anything. So if an exchange has shown this, then you will need to contact them as the physical transaction has not actually happened

Another reason to not keep your ADA on exchanges

I had an amount of ADA in my Exodus wallet and I decided to transfer it to the exchange site (Kraken) where it originally came from so I could trade an āxā amount of that. I didnāt know that I should create a āNew Adressā on my Kraken account to receive those assets, so I thought it would be alright to copy/paste the last receiving adress and use it as a āSent toā or āWithdrawalā adress, because itās exact the same where it came from in the first placeā¦
The thing is, I didnāt ever received any of that ADA because -I think- I didnāt create that new adress where it should have been sent to.
So, this adress where I sent this ADA to, somehow exists but āno oneā owns it? Or does Kraken have the keys?
Itās really confusing for me because it makes sense to send the assets to the exact same adress they came fromā¦
What should I expect? Is that ADA lost or is it possible to recover it somehow? Like I said, that adress was created in the first place, automatically by the exchange site, so shouldnāt they be able to access it/track it?
Itās really stressing me out because it was a big amount of money thereā¦

Hi, i made exactly same mistake trying to transfer ADA from Atomic wallet to binance. Did you get some solution to get back your ADA?
Hi,
I havenāt got my ADA back since then. Kraken keeps saying to me that this is a process that would take āa lot of time and effort for themā but they are going to āattempt a recovery for the coins anywaysā. Iāve been now waiting over 2 months for them to do something but nothing has happened since them, they just keep delaying it and telling me that this is a really ātime consuming thing to doā.
I just donāt know if Iām ever gonna be getting my coins back. I have seen people that have been waiting for Kraken to recover their coins for over 3 years now. Thatās just crazyā¦
I also moved all my funds away from Kraken because of this. I donāt think their customer support is prepared to handle things like this.
I hope that Binance does a better work than Kraken on this matter. Let me know if you manage to get some help!

Hey, can someone help me ? I withdrew all my ADA coins from Binance to Trezor T wallet and suddenly I got another address on my Trezor T wallet which I thought it was mine. I sent all my ADA there. Is there any solution to get my ADA back or no ? I contacted Trezor support for this issue.
