If that will happen you can not recover it, and that was a big loss because you might lose some bitcoins and my advice for you is always check before you click, we all know that bitcoins is very important for us so my advice is always double check the address.

In a couple of years, with so many coins lost this way, not sure many will be left, since bitcoins are limited to 21 million and losing coins by sending them to wrong address's will keep on happening. Anyone can make a simple mistake copying the address, even though it's easy.

All people who involve in bitcoin know that your bitcoin will loss. You can not recover it.

About the total of bitcoin getting less because of wrong send to any address, it can really happen if no body own the address anymore. If the address where we send it still belong to someone, it means it is just hand over to the other hand.

Hi!
As the title says, what happens if i get an address wrong? Do the coins get lost?
If that's what happens, why not change the code in Bitcoin, so that if the bitcoin network cant detect that address, returns the bitcoins to you?
It might cause us to lose incorrectly using the wrong address, if the address bitcoin receiver is active then it will not be easy for us to get it back

If you send your bitcoins to wrong address then surely blessed are those lucky receivers, Actually there are many cases happening in real scenario about sending btc in wrong no. and they find hard to recover the amount. Much better to double check always the pincode before sending:)

It's your fault and bitcoin is not responsible for it.Sending bitcoins to the wrong address causes your bitcoin to disappear and can not come back again.Be careful in the delivery of bitcoin.

What you say makes no sense, it's just impossible, it's like putting money in someone's pocket, and waiting for it to be repaid

It depends on your wallet because in our wallet coin.ph if you send a wrong adress you can contact the team of fheir company to resolve the problems but it takes a time because theyre are busy too so if you use like blockchain i think it never comeback again.

There's no way to cancel the transaction. If ever I receive a free bitcoin I will not send it back. I doubt if some body had done it. It is always better to double check transactions and bitcoin address before sending it. All you can do if ever you sent your bitcoin to a wrong address is to check the numbers of confirmation done on block chain before the stranger receives your free bitcoin.

Once you have confirmed your transaction, there's no way to cancel it. Just say good bye to your bitcoin if ever you have sent it to a wrong address. That is why it is always better to double check before sending or doing any transactions. I doubt if the recipient will be generous enough to send back your bitcoin. Consider it as a gift if this happens.

You just gave someone a gift. There's no way to get them back unless that person sends them back to you but good luck finding who they are.

When something like that happens, forget that you even have a bitcoin. And someone out there will totally have a blast. A total celebration i may say. Imagine the excitement he/she may feel when out of nowhere a couple of bitcoin appears in their wallet. And you cannot blame anyone but yourself. That is totally your fault. Always remember, before you press that enter, check your input twice or more.

You will lost your tokens...the bad thinks is that you cant contact anyone for send back the amount to you because btc is decentralized and not need informations about users...we are the only responsible of our actions

Whenever I send BTC has a different address I stress every time so much I'm afraid to be wrong ahah
To prevent it from happening, it is better to copy and paste rather than of manual inputs.
Because using of blockchain technology, all transaction are not reversible. Once it become successful, you can't bring back your money even you have sending a wrong address unless it is appeared that it is invalid address. Double checking of address might work before sending.

Nothing to be scared about if you are careful enough. Yes it does scares at the beginning as if the funds are sent to another address its kind off lost even if the address exists, because you cannot contact the person to whom you sent. But for other Payment processors this can be reversed.

Yes. They get lost forever. Hope you wrote right adress) i was just thinking about it today. How many money lost in crypto world

Bitcoin address is to different. So you will check the bitcoin addres before you will send. If wrong send you can't find any one. Bitcoin address is to safe to transfor the bitcoin so you will check and you for the transaction process. Bitcoin to easy to transactions process. You will send the bitcoin any one. It good opportunity of the future growth and future transactions process. If bitcoin transfor wrong address you can't if the bitcoin the where it will send.
