COMP mistakenly sent to compound contract address

1

Dear Community,

I have mistakenly sent 9.982COMP from my Binance account to Compound’s contract address: 0xc00e94cb662c3520282e6f5717214004a7f26888

Transaction:

I hereby attach the screenshot of the withdrawal record of my binance account, as well as a screen record of me logging in to my binance account to prove that transaction was initiated by me.

This is not a small sum of money to me, hope theres any way to get the COMP back please. Thanks so much everyone in the community.

Thanks,
Wel

It seems that this sum of funds is lost permanently, sorry for the loss here @wel

Unfortunately, the COMP smart contract is immutable and we can not relocate the COMP you sent to it.

This is a ideal use-case for adding a sendToken function to the Comptroller, for COMP or arbitrary tokens held in the Comptroller contract.

Hello

I made the same error, is this limitation fixed?

This is not a limitation. This is how ERC-20 contracts work. Sorry but your tokens are not recoverable.
