There are many ways to lose your bitcoins but you can recover in few cases only. I have read that someone actually paid 111 BTC as transaction fees and he got back his fees somehow so don’t consider that you have lost everything. Try to find out how you can recover your loss and be optimistic and that is always better than doing nothing. Precaution is better than cure so how about taking extreme precaution so you will never lose your bitcoins?

Lol what ?? Huh

He paid 111 BTC as transaction fees? how can anyone be that careless?? he must have been high on something. I would love to know how the hell he got those coins back though, I would've thought that would be impossible. If I was a miner and I received 111 BTC for solving a block, I certainly wouldn't send it back Tongue

Lose? So how did you lose it?, Anyways once your bitcoin is in a different wallet then it's not yours anymore . If the bitcoins has been stolen or you send it accidentally, You can get it back if the new owner wants too (but I don't think they will give it back to you)

The chances are very rare that someone will return bitcoins back to the main owner, as everyone wants free money, but now I think every user is taking best care before sending them.

If you sent bitcoins accidentally, it is only the user's fault. Bitcoin is designed to have "one-way" transactions for security purposes.
We must know the basics of it before using it.

hi , so this is my question , but i thing we can not do anything ?.

Im quite confusing about your question. But if ever that could be happen that you lose your bitcoin in any reason. Well it depends on the situation. Just like you lose your bitcoin because you send it to a wrong wallet address, in this case we had nothing to do than to accept that its totally not yours at all. But if incase you lost your bitcoin and you know if who is the owner of wallet address u sended well in that case you have a chance to recover your bitcoin.

Hahahaha a lot of people is feeling that, confusing about the op's question but for me that is just like a troll and the main answer if you lost and you don't hold your coin into your hand... and he are not giving more explanation why about his can getting lose.

If you lost your bitcoin it is either you wallet was hack in some hackers here in cyberworld or else you scam by those scammer in the world if trade something from them. Another theory scam by investment sites because no investment is permanent in the cyberworld all are turn to scam.

What happens? regretion! There is nothing else you can do after losing your bitcoins but just to regret if you have invested them in a ponzi scheme or gambled them up, or if you sent them in a wrong address then they are gone as well, you cannot reach the owner of that address to ask him for a payback.

yeah you would be just sad and you would start hating your life if you have a lot of bitcoins to hold

Its really hard to find any honest person in online world, if someone is getting free money then no one will bother to return you your coins, and if the amount is huge then I bet he will surely enjoy with that free money.

Yeah it is true, a lot of people that are part of virtual world or online have false or disguised their accounts become one person. On the internet it would be very difficult to identify someone properly if they do not know in the real world. Honesty person looks at every word he remove

Major drawback is that here we are not into one to one conversation so there is no space for trust factor, and if we loose our coins its almost impossible to expect for recovery.

Depends. If you know who got your Bitcoins, you can contact him and your chance of getting your coins back depends on that person and no one else. Sending your coins into the wrong address would give you a really low chance of getting your coins back simply because who wouldn't want receiving Bitcoins from a random address and who on Earth would send it back if they randomly received Bitcoins.

Once you lose them it's over. It will depend on the guy that steals it from you to give them back which is unlikely. If it's your own mistake, as in accidentally deleting wallet.dat, you may be able to recover your bitcoins with software such as recuva. If you lose the password its probably over unless its realistically bruteforceable.

If you lose bitcoin you can not do anything. Because bitcoin is gone I do not think going back. But you can just search for it again to get back bitcoin. For that we must be careful when using bitcoin and use it wisely.

Bitcoin transaction are non-reversible and untraceable so i don't think it is easy to find out where your bitcoin ends as well as if mixer/tumbler were used than it become more harder to trace. So if you lost your bitcoin sending it to wrong address than there is no way to reverse it.

No matter what is the reason, if you lost your bitcoin then it is gone, whether you lost it to a scammed site or send it to wrong address, there wont be any chance to recover it, and its very difficult to track it,so if you lost it, then just accept it

That's right in general, but there is one exception, that's when you'd sent your coins by mistake to the address which belongs to a person you know. Even if you know this person only via Internet you can still have your coins back. I know about many cases when honest people were returning coins to the right owners.
