I have a question for you all. What happens to all the tokens mistakenly sent from a wallet to a wrong wallet and where do they go? 
Depending on the token sent to whose address, if it was sent to a personal address someone might sell it, but if it was sent to an exchange address, the token would be stored at the exchange address and not sent anywhere else
Well, most tokens that has been mistakenly sent, has either been to a wrong user’s address or an address that is not correct, it is on a rare case that a token will be sent wrongly to an exchange, and it also depends on the exchange too, imagine you ending a wrong coin to Yobit, o you think they will even recognize any complain or email from him.

So, nothing can really be said that it is the right solution, it is a 50:50 things, they receiver might decide to be nice and listen to him to send it back, depending on the kind of coin that was being mistakenly sent. It will be very hard to receive any BTC mistakenly sent, compared to tokens like TRON or BAT.
