Once a bitcoin transaction is sent, it cannot be canceled or reversed. This is due to the decentralized and irreversible nature of the Bitcoin network.
If you accidentally sent bitcoin to the wrong address:
- If you know the recipient, you can try contacting them to request that they return the funds.
- If you don’t know the recipient, there’s unfortunately no way to recover the bitcoin.
💡 Tips: To help avoid this in the future:
- Always double-check the address before sending a transaction
- Consider sending a small test transaction first to confirm the address is correct
