Topic: BTC to ETH Address (Read 504 times)
Not to an eth address. The addresses look completely different and work differently too. They not even the same length I don't think. But it is good you ask so you do not lose any tokens. I must tell you that you can still make this error with other currencies. Bitcoincash you bitcoin use the same address. So you can make a mess like that. Always make sure you double or triple check the address you are sending to. Don't just copy and paste it and expect it to always be right. You could make a mistake so manually check it.
That will not happen to people who know where the BTC wallet and the ETH wallet are, certainly distinguish it, if sent to the ETH address it will fail btc will not be sent, so for me this is a joke asking this,
If BTC is sent to an ETH address, what will happen to the BTC? Will the BTC reach the address and wallet? Or definitely lost?
You can't sent any coins to different blockchain. Theoretically its impossible. Bitcoin has own blockchain and Ethereum has own blockchain. So its impossible to send bitcoin to the Ethereum address. It should be detected by your wallet as said above but many users. Transaction won't complete if even any wallet broadcasts any transaction to the blockchain incase failed to detect. So you don't need worry about retrieve since transaction will never happen. If you have any such as case then share with us.
It’s been clearly answered you cannot send Btc to an Eth address. It’s weird because we easily recognized if the address is btc or eth. You will know what address starts for eth and btc, definitely there’s an error on your transactions.

If lost, how to retrieve the BTC?
Impossible, no matter which wallet you are sending the btc from you will get a sending error even before you sent it out, the wallet will recognise the address as invalid, why would you even want to try this out anyway? sounds kinda funny to me If lost, how to retrieve the BTC?
You can't, you can't send BTC to Eth, because it will invalid the address when you enter it. other than that, if BTC were successfully sent to the ETH address, it would not appear. and will not be returned. because the nature of the blockchain is a one-time transaction (one-way sending)

It will not disappear, because the BTC wallet format will not respond if you enter the ETH wallet address. When you enter the ETH wallet address and you send it will say 'Your wallet address is wrong'. If lost, how to retrieve the BTC?
Unless you send BTC to the BTC address, but there are one or two numbers that are wrong on the BTC address, then BTC will be sent, and it will be lost, then it cannot be returned to the base wallet.
So don't think about sending BTC to ETH address, then BTC will change to ETH, or vice versa. Sending a token (erc20) to an ETH address will also not change to ETH. They have their own code.
But if you send an ERC20 token to any ETH address, the transaction process is successful. But it cannot be returned, because the ETH address does not have a key.
I don't think online wallet can easily renew BTC to ETH either, because it is agreed that we understand that they have different blocks, even though the ETH and BTC system is almost the same. but in my opinion it's still very unlikely, can you provide us with an online wallet reference that can update BTC to ETH?
Be carefulof doing this , some wallet are give us warning or error message, but i've ever make a mistake send a currency to other currency from an exchange, no error message and my balance is gone.
You will never be able to send Bitcoins to an Ethereum address. All normal wallets and services are protected from this kind of error. However, you may mistakenly send ERC20 tokens to a different not meant for them ERC20 address. In this case, the tokens may be lost forever. That is, you need to be careful when you use different tokens of the same platform.
I agree with you! The two systems have different formats, if you transfer BTC to an atcoin wallet address in the same format as Bitcoin, I think you will definitely lose, so when send in large volumes, you should try with the possible loss. Good luck!

I tried it also in our local exchange, sending btc to eth address and this is the error that I get. "Please input a valid email, phone #, name or BTC address
".
But I am not that sure with other wallet whether the transaction will push through or not because if it will push through then your money will surely be lost and cannot be recovered anymore. It is considered as burn, so it's better that you should triple check everything to avoid this kind of mistake to happen.
Bitcoin and ETH address have different form and impossible you can sent your bitcoin to ETH address, there are unavailable if you use eth address to sent bitcoin, maybe if other coin have erc20 platform you can use eth address for sending but your token will be lost and you success for sent it, BTC and eth address have different purchase payment platform.
Indeed, this transaction wont be succeeded, they have different form of address and its impossible to send btc to eth address, the transaction will only reverese or wont send and an error prompt will show that sending funds from eth address is not valid or wallet does not exist. I tried it before for some mistake and luckily its impossible to send funds.

The update in quotes isn't changed so that it can send BTC to the ETH wallet, but the wallet script is changing. When talking with HTML code, starting with HTML V 2.0 code, many now use HTML V 5. If you talk about wallet issues, for example, the imToken wallet from version 1.0, has changed to Version 2.0. Which of course this can not be run on an offline wallet.
You will lose your btc coins, it is different blockchain
This happen with me but with USDT and BCH

It is technically not possible to send BTC to an ETH address, you will get an error and a warning from your wallet service, most likely. But if the BTC is sent it is lost surely, you cant retrieve BTC or any similar decentralized cryptocurrency after sending your coins. So be careful and check twice the address you are going to send the payment to.

There will be reminders from the wallet or exchange. my experience has been sending a doge but I copied the wallet eth there was a warning from the system to change the correct doge address.

Cannot retrieve the bitcoin that you sent to the ETH address. Your BTC will burn, just as you send ERC20 in an ETH exchange wallet. Your coins will disappear. This is based on the description of each exchange that I use.
I have never had this kind of challenges before, but I think in one way, it should still be possible to recall it through blockchain because I saw a similar case somewhere, where the person mistakenly sent the bitcoin to a bitcoin cash account, but someone said it could be retracted though, I have forgotten the procedure but would have to check the post again to see what the method would be for the process to complete.
