<p>You have the first part right. REDD and RDD use the same pub/priv encoding scheme. Therefore we can simply export the privkey of his RED deposit address and import it into the REDD wallet.

<p>If REDD &amp; RED are using the same set of public keys (ie each public key address is valid for both coins' Blockchains) then the <strong>only way</strong> to retrieve coins from a public address is if:</p>

<ol>
<li>You owns the private key</li>
<li>Someone else (eg Cryptsy) owns the private key</li>
</ol>

<p>Since 1 is false, you'd need to hope 2 is true. The odds of Cryptsy having a subset of REDD keys overlapping RED keys is as likely as creating a Bitcoin address and finding coins in it.</p>

<p>Sorry, your coins are gone.</p>

If REDD & RED are using the same set of public keys (ie each public key address is valid for both coins' Blockchains) then the **only way** to retrieve coins from a public address is if:

1. You owns the private key
2. Someone else (eg Cryptsy) owns the private key

Since 1 is false, you'd need to hope 2 is true. The odds of Cryptsy having a subset of REDD keys overlapping RED keys is as likely as creating a Bitcoin address and finding coins in it.

Sorry, your coins are gone.
