This is to share how I got fund back after sending it to a wrong address.
FYI It is hard to understand if you are not familiar with DeFi.
Here is the story.
1: It was a Defi application which is quite open and noone helps as it is Defi, no customer support and whatsoever, even the website says do it at your own risk. That sounds tough but it is the current DeFi situation. Test in Prod by AC!
2: I sent a liquidity to a liquidity pool. (about 20,000USD) and expecting some APY.
3: After a week, I came back to the website and realized there is no "withdraw" function on their UI so checked their smart contract on Etherscan but it can only be withdrawn by the LP owner.
4: Check the contract owner and saw ENS which is identical so that I managed to find the twitter account.
5: I contacted the twitter inmail about I sent liquidity by mistake.
6: I got response and he mentioned and wondering where it is from.
7: He agreed to send back to the address which the fund came from.
8: I surely agreed as it is my address.
Done
This may be a simple process however;
What if
I can not find any identical information about the person to contact
he does not answer my message
he does not agree to return
There is no such thing DeFi lawyer or decenterized court.
Therefore it is a self-regulation.
I think so far the players in DeFi are nice, they act right if it makes sense.
