What should I do if I mistakenly withdraw crypto via the wrong network?

If you select the wrong network when withdrawing assets to a third-party platform or your wallet, you may not receive the assets.

• If you withdraw to a third-party platform with the wrong network, you'll need to reach out to the third-party's support team for assistance.
• If you withdraw to a third-party wallet with the wrong network, you can retrieve it by following the guidance below:

Note:

• When you send crypto from OKX wallet, ensure you have sufficient OKT as transaction fees.
• OKX Web3 wallet supports EVM and follows the same generation rules of public key and private key, so the address, private key, and seed phrase are universal in OKX Web3 wallet and ETH wallet.
• After you complete the above steps, you can continue withdrawing assets via the correct network on the OKX platform.
• If you've selected the wrong network during the withdrawal process, your assets may not be visible. To avoid this, we suggest double-checking the crypto network before taking any action. For example, USDT-ERC20 is on the ETH network, USDT-TRC20 is on the TRX network, and USDT-OKTC is on the OKTC network.
• The above steps are also applicable if you'd like to transfer crypto-ERC20 from the ETH wallet to the OKX Web3 wallet.
