This is an unclear description. I don't understand the exact layout of
the storage stack, and what part of it you formatted. For example I
can't tell if the whole block device is encrypted, a partition is
encrypted, or if it's the LV that's encrypted. And I can't tell if the
formatting was a mistake, and what you accidentally formatted. I can't
tell if the encrypted device opens without error, if the LV is
discovered.

You need to be really clear because any changes you make dramatically
increase the chance of total data loss.

What do you get for:

$ sudo btrfs rescue super -v /dev/mapper/...


This should be the logical block device that contains the Btrfs file
system, the device you would mount (if it weren't damaged).

It's possible but somewhat unlikely that all of the supers are
damaged; but it depends on the size of the file system and what you
formatted.
