<p>I am using Exodus wallet and an eCommerce plugin to accept cryptocurrency payments. To generate the HD wallet addresses I needed to provide an xpub key.

(Asked by: username_0 on 2020-03-31)

I am using Exodus wallet and an eCommerce plugin to accept cryptocurrency payments. To generate the HD wallet addresses I needed to provide an xpub key. I accidentally used the BTC xpub key instead of the BCH xpub key. They are different. Is it possible to recover my funds somehow or are they lost forever?
