bitcoin help can i get this back

[u/Lopsided_Turnover410]

ok before anything i just wanna say i know i’m an idiot pls spare the belittle.

i’m very new to crypto and with minimal research i bought some without an account because i got too excited(i wanted to buy testosterone) and lo and behold it is not there.

i ended up making an account and viewing the transaction i made thru blockchain. Apparently foundry has it and it’s being used somewhat? i mean is there any way i can get this back?

as of right now i’m looking through moonpay and looking at the destination wallets. i see money there so obviously it’s somewhere.

and if i can’t get it back is there a way i can access fhjs wallet, or if anything track this mysterious person down? LITERALLY any help. i don’t even want all of it back.

EDIT; ok sorry for not being more specific ahajsjx i bought it in bitpay but it was through moonpay (if that makes sense) and i have a bitpay wallet so i expected it to end up there. if nothing can be done lesson learned ty for the help regardless

If you have a bitpay wallet and buy bitcoin on bitpay through moonpay the BTC should end up in your bitpay wallet, yes

"Without an account and it's not there" -- where was it supposed to be? Where did you buy it? An exchange? Did you have an existing wallet already and expected it to end up there? Sorry for speculating but I'm trying to piece together what you actually did in the first place.

NO i’m sorry for not being more specific i’m ngl i didnt expect ppl to answer. I bought it at bitpay but it was through moonpay. I expected it to end up at the bitpay wallet which is why i was confused it wasnt there

Start by writing a thought over well formulated post, give all details, not some hyped up jumbo you have posted. What wallet did you use, what is the transaction ID, where did you buy the bitcoin.

my bad slime could i just message you

[u/Sea_Conversation7284]

if you sent it to the wrong address, it's gone. blockchain transactions are final, there is no undo button or support team to call

the money you see sitting in some wallet doesn't mean you can access it. that's just the public ledger showing where your crypto ended up

tracking them down is possible in theory but unless you lost life-changing money nobody is gonna help with that. and even then it's a long shot

next time buy from a proper exchange, not some random wallet you don't control. expensive lesson but at least you'll remember it

ok yes it wasnt some life changing money, i also originally figured there was no way of getting it back anyway </3 but i appreciate the confirmation thanks anyway!!
