<p>if you mistyped the address and it was somehow still valid (very low probability but still possible) you are definitely screwed. but just finding it "unspent" on a blockchain explorer doesn't mean anything went wrong; it just means the recipient is holding on to it. how about giving more details as to what happened?</p>

The probability of a mistyped address being valid is about 1 in 4 billion.

<p>You may have entered a invalid address by accident, there is a VERY low probability it was valid, so it is probably unspent at this moment.</p>

<p>However, once it is sent, its sent. There is no way to reverse it.</p>

You may have entered a invalid address by accident, there is a VERY low probability it was valid, so it is probably unspent at this moment.

However, once it is sent, its sent. There is no way to reverse it.
