OP, 4.37 btc is a huge amount, if you sent that amount to someone I don't think you sent it in the wrong order. The kind of explanation you have given here leaves many things unclear. Without concrete evidence I don't think anyone will believe you did the transaction. How confidently can you say that you have traded bitcoins with someone on this forum? However, you should keep in mind to be careful and double-check all information before sending cryptocurrency transactions as transactions cannot be reversed once confirmed on the blockchain.

Don't believe easily on a random post of some people here since his claims is not verified yet.

What I think he try to do here is he want people to commit mistake by accidentally pasting OP's wallet address if the victim will do a transaction. He post all of his addresses here that's why I think this is the main intention of OP's post and try to create some story like he sent in a wrong address so people will copy it and see if there's transaction happened.

So be careful guys and always check your transactions after you get curios to see what's OP trying to say regarding on I think fake stories in this thread.

Obviously, this makes me doubt if this story is legit, well, let me assume that the op is a newbie into the crypto world and doesn't understand that Bitcoin is different from ETH address, Op it more of that your funds are lost permanently, This is important to learn the basics of Bitcoin before getting involved because judging by what Op has displayed here by providing ETH address in the name of Returning his Bitcoin, shows clearly he knows little about Bitcoin and how works, Now if at all this is true, look at what it has caused Op, making him lose such an amount of money, even though this can happen to anyone in crypto space, experience or newbie.

I don't think anyone would believe the OP's story if he's not able to provide prove of his claims like the transaction ID or a screenshot of the transaction history, also I feel sorry for him if he's being sincere about this cause his money could be gone, i mean how is he going to get that back if the receiver is not willing to refund it or is there anyway possible he could?

Currently his only hope should be that he reliever is a generous and kind hearted person that would send it back without a second thought. If not, if the reciver is someone that's really in need of money and is not willing to refund I'm sorry your money is gone.

Lol, I decided to overlook that and give him my opinion before coming to that, dropping an ETH address for a refund of Bitcoin would give anyone that reads his statement a reason to have doubts because they're not same thing. Maybe he doesn't know about that, he might be new into crypto or maybe he's giving the receiver an option to convert to ETH and send if they could, just maybe.

P.S.
It's funny that OP indicated the Ethereum (ERC20) address in case of a return. Does he want bitcoin sent to ETH address? OP learns nothing and wants to make another mistake (after which a refund will certainly be impossible)?

I don't have to repeat what other forum members have said but what I can say about this if it it's true that you have sent the btc to the wrong wallet address then say goodbye to your BTC unless the owner of the BTC address that you have sent it to will return you the BTC. As we can see with the image provided in this thread, the wallet address you provided didn't receive any btc at all. I don't know what you want OP by posting this and you didn't even bother replying. Well, there's no point in explaining more of it since OP last active is on April 15.

OP if you know this is a joke you better stop it, because the joke is very expensive, how can you possibly sent 4.37BTC to an unknown account ?didn't you check the wallet address very well before proceeding? I think you just want to have fun, but if you mean what you said, I will advice you just let go of it, reason is because there's no way you're going to get a refund.

Only one post and the account has been created the day the post was made. OP wanted to have fun. Looking at the address format (vanitygen) it's obvious that OP have some sort of knowledge about address and things. He surely is having some laugh after seeing some of the users are spending time on checking and validating the addresses.

Provide the transaction id to it, after doing that, i still doubt as well if someone can boldly comes out to claim they are responsible for the amount, if you look at the amount being involved here, its something huge and i don't think someone can easily make a refund like that if they got that kind of money, except there is a proof that you can present in showing that the recipient is a member of this forum, moreover, home comes do you arrived at using a wrong address in sending the fund.

The question is no longer on the the ownership of the receiving wallet or wether the owner is here or not since it was confirmed that the address is invalid bitcoin address, secondly to prove that he actually own the sending address he may need to sign a bitcoin message from that wallet that way members of the forum can verify.

But even after all of that, I don't see any help insight since the coins have already been sent and unrecoverable as long as it has achieved a confirmation on the network.

Never mind 4 BTC, you don't even have $1 for your address, how are you talking nonsense here.
Proof:

~snip~

Your jokes are very entertaining, you think people here are stupid, on the contrary you are stupid.

But it doesn't matter, because you are a beginner, maybe it's a disposable account, so it doesn't matter if you don't come back here, in the future if you want to lie and want to cheat, don't come here.

It's no different from the checks I did on several of the addresses he listed on the topic. 4 BTC for me is a lot so when OP said "accidentally" he had made a sending error in the hope that it could be returned. It turned out that none of the addresses provided contained any coins including addresses that weren't Bitcoin addresses so I felt like crap was being played to try to create a scenario that led to tricking people active on the forum. Unfortunately he probably doesn't know that most of the people active here understand more about this.

nc50lc has provided a technical explanation regarding this so the best option after this is to ignore it.

What gave you the idea that the owner of that wallet address is a member of the forum or are you posting this on every crypto forum and groups that you can find? It’s hard to believe that someone would make such a careless mistake of not double checking the wallet address when transacting such huge amounts of bitcoins.

I don’t think he is posting it here maybe he will find out who’s the owner of the wallet address, I think he is just trying to explain what happened to him and also try to tell us to be careful during transaction, no one is perfect and anyone can make mistakes at any time, but this surprise me again, why don’t he check and confirm it before sending the btc to the address, before you should make any transaction, it is guarantee that you should comfirm it before sending the coin, because if you mistakenly send it to a wrong address that means your btc is gone because no refund, no refund is what we should remember before even doing any transactions.

This will serve as a warning and example for him to be careful next time, but to be honest it is very painful to lost a btc by this time around when things are not going on a right way, this haven’t happened to me or anyone around me before and I pray it should never happen to anyone, no one pray to lost a huge fund because it very painful and even lead someone to commit what he is not capable of doing.

BTC, a coin of today and tomorrow.

This topic is upto 2 pages, I have searched to see if OP has replied to anyone, but it seems OP has forgotten about this thread or he's thinking something else. I will try to report to moderator whether they can lock this thread.

But one confusing thing here is that someone has voted in the poll above on the Ethereum address. Does it mean that the person didn't understand the post or the Op voted that himself?

Are you just assuming if such could happen how the fund can be refunded or are you talking about a reality occurance Op?
If a reality, show us proof.
If a reality, then on no account can this be recovered unless the receiver is such a good hearted person.
What in the first place made you feel the receiver will be In this platform? Are you aware that we've just less number of bitcoin or crypto Investors in this forum comparing to those out there who're not tin the forum which in most cases the receiver might not be here?
It might even be so unlucky for you that you must have sent it in some dump or inaccessible wallet.
While in the main time, I don't believe you.

This theme fits Mark Twain's expression more than ever, namely: “Never argue with idiots. You will sink to their level, where they will crush you with their experience.”
There is a second page with evidence that the OP stupidly decided to have fun. Is it worth continuing to prove something to him? Grin

No one will believe you if you sent your bitcoins to the wrong address. This story or this comment of yours seems false and fabricated to many here.

My question to you is how did you know that someone here got your bitcoins. You mentioned that $4.37BTC bitcoins were sent to a wallet by mistake. Today according to the coin market cap the price of 1BTC is $62356.29 dollars which means the current value of your lost bitcoin(BTC) is $4.37×$62,356.29=$272,496.9873 dollars.

If the recipient gets that much bitcoin I think he will never want to give it back because he will be able to live comfortably with that many dollars. Also many have proven or said that the addresses you have provided are invalid. Even if your story turns out to be false, you should always do your due diligence before sending bitcoins to a wallet in the future so you don't make the same mistake again.

Thanks for the swift response, I've browsed through the site, and grasped a few things from the first glance, but it's not enough, I really need to dedicate more time to actually learn how to apply the technicalities of checksum.

Bitcoin knowledge definitely goes beyond buy hodl and sale, there's so much more technicalities and terminologies that are involved, thanks for adding this feather to my cap.

I believe we will be seeing this in frequent time as BTT has a large number traffic so it's a target form scammers.

You can try other places.

It's that time of the season once again. These scammers have a way of resurfacing whenever the market is trying to enjoy a rally upward. What baffles me is why they choose to come here to display their level of amateurishness when they ought to know that a good number of users here are highly knowledgeable in these things. Another one bites the dust.

You claim to erroneously send 4.37 BTC to some undisclosed wallet address.

My questions are:
If your claims are true why didn't you make available to our knowledge the wallet address you wrongly sent the 4.37 BTC to, just as you could make known to us the address 1L1UduuGPZ8ttGe59F2w9tTEumQFhtxiuT you claim to have been used to send the BTC.

Secondly, Why provide entirely different wallet addresses as where the BTC should be sent to assuming the person who wrongfully received the 4.73 BTC decides to send it back. Why do so when you could use same address you used in sending it to also receiving, that's if your claims are genuine and not some sort of a scam scheme.

Your claims to me are suspicious for you don't seem to be straightforward.
