Hey guys have a question about bitcoin. If I send bitcoin to someone’s email instead of a bitcoin wallet address what happens. I check and the email is registered as a bitcoin account. It says sent received. Guy is denying he received it saying I’m a scammer? What should I do?
Good question cgeorgemeow. Tell us more about how you sent your bitcoin. Did you use an app?
Bitcoin (BTC) can be frustratingly slow. Many times, it'll work out, after enough confirmations.
Yeah I used one called coinbase, it’s actually really fast to be honest. I sent it using coinbase got confirmation also. From what I understand on another board if not claimed in 30 days it should refund. This is my first time using it to do a transaction so I guess I’ll have to wait and see.
Good news, should be able to verify on blockchain.info
When you send btc it goes through 3 verifications. If it doesn’t pass all the it doesn’t send, if you tried sending it to an email address rather then a wallet ID it’s not going to verify
Never sent bitcoin to an email address. How did you check the email is registered to an account? Imagine this is a feature from the exchange?
Ohh didn’t know all this is new to me
I went in and just tried to register under that email said was already an account. The email is the same name as the cereal I was trying to buy ex. [email protected] etc
Didn’t know will check
It's not easy.Quote:

Neither I just assumed it was the email, then he told me no it’s not.
No it wouldn't be.Quote:
