A few days later, I told the police to bring me the lady who sent the coins to my director's Bitcoin address, So they did. To cut a long story short, when I checked the address of the lady who sent the Bitcoin, it was a USDT address that my director gave to the lady to send Bitcoin unknowingly to him.

You had all the time in the world to tell the policemen this when you were interrogated by them but you chose to be locked up for days before saying it. I see that you want your story to be long which is why you chose not to tell the policemen not to call the woman that made the transaction when you were first interrogated by the police.

Was it my fault?

Your director has never studied Bitcoin's fundamentals to know how to deal with Bitcoin. You went ahead to convince him to start accepting Bitcoin payments in his business and you also adopted a custodial wallet where he is not fully in control of his Bitcoin. It is your fault for introducing something to your director he has no single knowledge of.

The heck was that story. Everyone here got a negative sentiment OP cause the details werent clear and good as realistic event on blockchain. How come you can do a BS story to post here? I hope you arent grinding for merits. Its okay to post narrative experience but to tell a lies and equate your situation with that isnt gonna earn you merits. Being truthful or posting quality experience here can be a good meritable post but not to the point you need to came up with a lousy story. Props for posting you really did effort on conjuring details.

OP,

If you're looking for something from this forum, be more honest first. The story you share here seems unrealistic, and like a fabrication full of errors of expression.

After that, I was granted bail, so I look for money to bail myself out, but the happiness I heard was that I didn't sell any of my coins while I was in a hard situation, so I know that since I didn't sell my coins to bail myself from the police cell I can hold my coins for longer time.
Was it my fault?

Mr OP why will you lie like this, the forum you see is not for one person but all the members are decision maker because anyone disregard your statement with fact so next time be careful. Don't see this has an attack rather a challenge you, again don't blame anyone for you mistake, learn from this mistake. Don't be discourage with all of this, don't give up, some of the members in the forum faces similar challenges like this.

I have a big question for you. Why did you suggest a non-custodial wallet to the Director? It seems like there was a bit of a blunder because you introduced him to a technology he wasn't familiar with. The user interface was quite challenging for him, and it seems like you might not have guided him as well as you could have. It's a bit surprising that a police case even came into play based on the information you provided. How did they arrest you without investigating further?

After the investigation, it turns out that the root cause of the problem was your recommendation, and there's a good chance you might face fines for the misinformation. To avoid all this trouble, recommending a custodial wallet would have been a safer and easier option for him. It's strongly recommended for people new to this space.

If you had made that recommendation, I'm sure the case might not have even gone this far. So, when guiding others about the market and Bitcoin, please be more careful. Based on what's happened in the past, it seems there's room for improvement in your guidance skills. Wink

No one needs to be blamed for this incident, I'm sure you have good intentions to make the supermarket where you work more developed than before after your boss accepted the suggestion to receive payment using crypto assets. Actually, this incident will not happen if you tell your boss to make copies of several different addresses on paper as well as a barcode (QR Code Generator) to receive payment. This incident is just a misunderstanding between your boss and the customer due to your lack of education.
I hope that after this case is over you will still be accepted to work there with the same position, then you have to pay more attention to teaching the employees there to prevent the same incident from happening.

Lies! lies!! lies!!!

If you insert a Usdt address (erc20 Or Bep20) it should show error or wrong address since they both start with “0x0” and that of trc20 starts with “T” and bitcoin addresses are either “1”, “3”, or “bc1” so how the heck did the lady send the coin to a Usdt address??

The whole story look like an obvious bs story, first you told your boss to use “binance” to accept transactions which means he would be reusing his wallet addresses, and that might lead to issues since he won’t be able to differentiate who sent a transaction.

I started reading the story and it already sounded made up. Thank you for confirming it. People make up lives on the internet in general, and stories like this. What happens is that here they have a powerful incentive to invent things that they think will earn them merit, as is clearly the case here, and it has backfired.

So, yes OP, it was your fault to make it up.

Haha, you nailed it mate.
If someone isn't caught, he could live happily ever after for merit hunting.

Let's assume that the story isn't a lie.
It might OP did not know that sending Bitcoin to USDT would lead to an error transaction and could be his director trying to prank him and now OP telling us here that BS story.

So now OP you can tell the police that the transaction is impossible.

Regardless of whether this news is true or not, you have made a mistake because you don't teach him totally. You shouldn't leave him with complete knowledge that makes him give the wrong address. If I were you, I would explain the chronology to the police and maybe give them proof or video of how the crypto address works. So with this experience, I hope it doesn't happen anymore in the future, if we don't really understand how crypto works, we shouldn't tell to anyone, Don't teach to someone if you really don't understand it yourself.

Yes, it's somehow your fault. Introducing Bitcoin to people is not the major task of BTC enthusiasts but ready to put the newbies through the necessary security, how to make transactions, and what to avoid which could lead to losing everything they had if they didn't avoid it.
Not putting newbies on the right path or teaching them well is the reason why most newbies have negative thoughts about cryptocurrency.

Yes, it was your fault for thinking that people would buy your wacky story.

And again, it's entirely my fault for reading through this long thread, knowing full well that this is not just a mere fabricated story but the shake of getting people's attention rather than looking for people who will feel pity for you. But guess what? You just happen to make it easier for members to start ignoring your posts and harder for people to waste time in your thread again. Try spicing up your story very well next time and conducting some research on what could be happening before using those words and statements to kill yourself with your own hand.

Because even a centralised exchange or a cheap platform can't even authorise a transaction with an address that's different from what it's supposed to be, I'm just wondering what you think of your readers.

OP, let's just say this is true that Bitcoin can be sent to that address and then yes it was your fault for not telling or teaching him everything you know and what the person should know about crypto. Anyway, even other wallet would also show invalid address just like what you can see on the image that hatchy provided. I didn't know what your true aim here but your story isn't believable for me and it's not just me who can prove it but as you can read in my post if I go along with it then read the top most part of this post.

It is only looking for merit.

But there is Omni layer for USDT and USDT can be sent to the bitcoin address that begin with 1 on Binance. Most people are not using the Omni layer and Tether Limited said recently that they will no longer support it.

It is just a lie.

This reminds me of this thread where OP is asking about what we could benefit when telling lies. What do we benefit in lies in forum. Definitely looking for a with such story.

Even if possible to make such mistake, wouldn't you have already posted your boss Bitcoin receiving address so why then does he need to go and manually copy the wrong address?
More so is the fact that in your story you failed to mentionhat the become of your boss after the experience, or they are still acting that episode.

I am going to give you the benefit of doubt and ask you one question. If you didn't sell your coins to free up yourself, how did you manage to get bail?

Contrary to the opinions and the story checks out, then it's your fault since you introduced someone to something they're not familiar with yet didn't give them the full details. You introduced someone to Bitcoin but first directed them to use an exchange and nothing about the technology/creating their own self-custodial wallet to manage it.

If the story is actually cooked up then you should be ashamed of yourself.

Some context:

It's possible to send a different blockchain asset to another but it would be lost. Another point to note is that not all wallets/exchanges do address validation in the UI.

If I am not mistaken, Binance ceased support for deposit and withdrawal services on the OMNI Network back in 2021:

Binance may stop support for USDT Omni layer address, but if you send USDT to that address, it will still be successful. The coin will not be shown on Binance. Although just as we have said before, the OP would have talked about it this way if what he is saying is true, but not true.

Some months ago, I was arrested by my director at the supermarket where I worked because I advised him to accept Bitcoin as part of payments in his business. Since I am the manager of the supermarket, I will teach him how to use it and he agreed and created a verified BINANCE that he could use for his transactions, since some people use Bitcoin in my area, so one day I didn't come to work. That day he messed up unknowingly with me.

You yourself still need more knowledge on how bitcoin transactions work because why would anyone use your custodial wallet for that long if a transaction occurred? I think you should use a noncustodial wallet.

It is always not good to me when someone who is supposed to learn in the forum tries to come up with some lies to fool people. When did you come to the forum that you were already acquainted with the knowledge of the bitcoin transaction that gave you confidence to tell your boss that he should start accepting bitcoin in his shop? And I wonder why you just come up with a lie like this to gain merit, which is not the right way for you to do that. Once you start lying on the forum, the forum members won’t value and what you are posting, and you won’t learn at all.

Is this for real? It's kinda hard to believe that this has happened for real. But let us say that this is a real thing, didn't you said that bitcoin address is different from other crypto addresses? I guess that should have been one of the first things that you've said to your boss since you're the one introduced it to him. But wherever we're going with this OP, just like the others I am very skeptic with your story even if I am trying to give you the benefit of the doubt. I guess that you can't blame us if we're not buying the story that you've made/said.
