I think you can get back if you have the private private key

this was my btc wallet for which I sent a ltc! I can cancel using a key, but I do not know how
https://live.blockcypher.com/ltc/tx/d3d81a8add79d54e6660b3c1798be4cef14c8891e073e33b502ed904294c2fc0/
Okay, now I understand.
You sent LTC to an address generated from a bitcoin wallet (bitcoin Address)
Litecoin and bitcoin have the same address scheme so the transaction went through.
You say you can cancel it using a key, that should be the private key.
(It should start with 5, K or L)
Download Electrum-LTC from here: https://electrum-ltc.org
Install it, then you can import the private key for the bitcoin Address starting with 3 into it and access your Litecoins.

When you install Electrum-LTC, open it, when it asks what kind of wallet you want to create select "import Litecoin Address or private keys" and click next
Then paste your private key into the field that appears and select next
Then the address starting with 3 should show, and you can now spend your Litecoin.

Litecoin won't accept a private key generated by bitcoin. As far I remember, they are not using the same prefix, and my tests are agreeing with me:

Code:
$ bitcoin-cli getnewaddress "" "p2sh-segwit"
3FKscuaFXRMArBU16qmg1CiJRisXHehL1P

$ bitcoin-cli dumpprivkey 3FKscuaFXRMArBU16qmg1CiJRisXHehL1P
Ky3tnCMTn22dim4PePucHT4k1oAVo1s1SQ5A5QBMdNABmbAT3Q2g

$ /opt/litecoin/bin/litecoin-cli importprivkey Ky3tnCMTn22dim4PePucHT4k1oAVo1s1SQ5A5QBMdNABmbAT3Q2g
error code: -5
error message:
Invalid private key encoding

Please note that litecoin recently changed their segwit address from a '3' prefix to a 'M' prefix. They remains compatible. You'll find a converter online here
My 3FKscuaFXRMArBU16qmg1CiJRisXHehL1P address is MMY1vnzDUYCbegjuCim1pqxhkRTyMj5ERV using it.

It will be required to convert it to a litecoin address.

To achieve this, bitcoin-tool will really help:

Code:
 $ ./bitcoin-tool --input-type private-key-wif --input-format base58check --input Ky3tnCMTn22dim4PePucHT4k1oAVo1s1SQ5A5QBMdNABmbAT3Q2g --output-type private-key --output-format hex
369fd82e91a07ea17aa4af14e202c4bea4d2370d7f9b67f7d702dd893b783c3f

$ ./bitcoin-tool --network litecoin --input-type private-key --input-format hex --input 369fd82e91a07ea17aa4af14e202c4bea4d2370d7f9b67f7d702dd893b783c3f --public-key-compression compressed --output-type private-key-wif --output-format base58check
T4tADweeBQ1EVbhGC2rUVoc7xeoos6suFbyQwCouCLLMHUk8EBVk

This will be the importable key. You'll be able to import it in litcoin, using litecoin core or electrum ltc.

Code:
$ /opt/litecoin/bin/litecoin-cli importprivkey T4tADweeBQ1EVbhGC2rUVoc7xeoos6suFbyQwCouCLLMHUk8EBVk "" false

$  /opt/litecoin/bin/litecoin-cli getaddressesbyaccount ""
[
  "LUY9d4NHM97NE4QWGrncko9uY5xrv7PRgH"
}

$ /opt/litecoin/bin/litecoin-cli dumpprivkey LUY9d4NHM97NE4QWGrncko9uY5xrv7PRgH
T4tADweeBQ1EVbhGC2rUVoc7xeoos6suFbyQwCouCLLMHUk8EBVk

Okay, key was imported, but we have a legacy address. We need the p2sh-segwit one. Just use the "addwitnessaddress" command:

Code:
$ /opt/litecoin/bin/litecoin-cli addwitnessaddress "LUY9d4NHM97NE4QWGrncko9uY5xrv7PRgH"
MMY1vnzDUYCbegjuCim1pqxhkRTyMj5ERV

Hey! That the same address I got earlier !
You should find your coins back with this method. Have fun!

Also, I tried a lot with electrum-ltc, and it doesn't to do the same.

thanks for the answer, can I use the instructions to insert the key?
Yes you can.
Remember not to give anyone your private key or else they'll be able to spend your Litecoins

thanks, I already sent a message to the scammers trying to find out my key

I sent a coin to this address 3H6RQQthC5HV1BUYT38NpF9CJVgJzVkubp, I have a key from this address, but I do not know what to do with it and how to cancel the transfer
Where did you get the address from? A bitcoin or Litecoin wallet?
Is it your address?

You cannot cancel cryptocurrency transactions.

I sent a LTC to your address, the amount is big! I do not know how to get it back
You need to explain a little bit more about your problem. To which address you sent your LTC?

Well, you can recover it in a reasonably easy way if you own the wallet where you sent the coins. and the private keys of your BTC address.
Take a look at this video for a recovery process : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=umsIy1ks8vg


I looked, but still can not figure out how to do it! does this need a special purse it is necessary?

Please describe your problem a bit more detailed.

You have sent LTC to your address, so? What is the problem?

Did you send LTC to a BTC address?
Are you missing the corresponding private key to the LTC address?

What exactly are you trying to accomplish? The only way of 'getting your coins back' is to use the correct private key.
You cant reverse the transaction.


I do not know how to return using a private key
