What exactly did you do?

Did you give out your public key to receive a payment and it got send to your legacy address instead of your native segwit?

If so, you can easily recover your funds.


Simply take the private key, import it into a new wallet (e.g. new electrum wallet file), choose legacy as address type and profit.

When pasting the private key, enter:
Code:
P2PKH:YourPrivateKey

SOLVED! Thank you man!

If there is no private key, seed keys, there is no wallet access. It is sad, but it is true. Always be careful!

i have the seeds, I tried to restore. but still, the received wallet address doesnt appear on my list.

Read the OP properly before spamming:

I have:
[...]
- bc1xx wallet's words phrase


Btw, there are no 'seed keys'. There is a seed, which is a long random number.
But no 'seed keys'.

So, instead of spamming your sig campaign, try to read the threads before replying in them.

I don't really understand what you did, but one thing to check would be to re-create the wallet, click "I already have a seed", and when entering the seed click onto Options and BIP39 before pressing Next.
Then you'll be allowed to pick the wallet type and you can select legacy.
Maybe that one will have your funds.

Although the chances may not be great, it may worth a try.

Im accidentally used electrum segwit Pub. address (zpu) to receive incoming payment.

that is not a possible thing to do anywhere. in other words if you put your zpub... in the "pay to" section of any bitcoin wallet out there, they will reject it as it is an invalid address (they will be looking for something that starts with 1, 3 or bc1 and when they see the zpub in the beginning, they reject it).

- 19xx address (i know the address, not key)
Are you the one who owns the address? Where did the address come from? Please enclose more details, please.

Please move this thread to technical support, check the lower left of this thread and move it. You will get better support there.

Hello,

What I Did:

* Checkout completed, but doesnt appears on my wallet.
* the receiver wallet start with 19xxx, otherwise my Electrum wallet start with bc1.

I have:
- transaction hash
- 19xx address (i know the address, not key)
- ZPUxxx public key
- bc1xx wallet's words phrase

how to access the funds?
Thank you..
