Once a transaction is completed, it cannot be altered or undone by anyone, regardless of their position or authority.

If you find yourself in a situation where you need to reverse a transaction, your only option is to reach out to the individual or entity that owns the receiving address.

However, if you are unaware of the owner of the address, the crypto assets involved in the transaction are essentially lost.
