Accidentally sent Coinbase Lightcoin to Kraken Bitcoin wallet address

in #cryptocurrency7 years ago

Stupid me.

I accidently sent a few Litecoins from Coinbase to my Bitcoin address on Kraken. Did I just lose all my Litecoins that I sent or will I be able to recover it?

I know Coinbases' customer support is non-existent, but I filed a ticket with Kraken. I'm worried that I've just lost half my investment!

Sort:  

Kracken will have the private keys for that address. The litecoin would be recoverable given those same keys. That is Kracken has them but their wallets probably will not see them. Ask them to import the bitcoin keys of your address into their litecoin wallet. You should be able to prove they are there with a block explorer for litecoin.
