Actually, it was an address I'd copied from a phishing scam. Sometimes I look at the addresses to see who's been scammed. In the process of consolidating recent txs I hastily pasted the address in and sent.

Yes, luckily for me, the transaction kept getting delayed because I'd only done a 2 sat fee.

I couldn't have done it without the help and guidance of absolute KING, Semisol 👨‍💻 (nprofile…u7te) who literally saved me! Truly grateful, hopefully he appreciates the meager bounty I sent in appreciation.

Never stop learning about bitcoin. It's incredible, and today I'm humbled by both nostr and bitcoin. NOSTR is straight signal and great peeps.

Cheers, fam.

It's 4h later, so the TX surely confirmed already but still ...

When blocks are empty as they are these days, there is little hope to get support faster than the transaction will confirm. If your wallet doesn't support RBF you are more likely to lose all the rest than to undo that one transaction, given your average time window is just 10min.

On the other hand, most "wrong addresses" tend to be addresses of people you sent to before, so you know who wrongly got your funds and you can ask politely to send the funds back. I did in the past and others sent funds back I had sent them accidentally as most people are not psychopaths and even psychopaths tend to collaborate if they figure the cost of not doing so might be high.
