Given the irreversible character of the blockchain, it is not possible to cancel a transaction after it has been executed. Therefore it is key to be extremely accurate when you transfer digital currency. It is recommended to always ensure that the address to which you are planning to transfer your digital currency is exactly the same address as that of the receiver and to only then confirm the order. Please always copy and paste the wallet address instead of reproducing it to avoid potential typing errors.
Potential solution
Suppose your digital currency has already been transferred to an incorrect wallet address. In that case, the only way to get it back is to contact the receiving party and ask them to return your digital currency. If you are unfamiliar with the owner of the wallet address, there is nothing you can do to get your digital currency back.
