Why would the fee be so high? Is this some type of error?

I'm looking at it and wow! Four confirmations....ouch....Is there any imaginable way to reverse that transaction or remedy it in anyway? Could it have been on purpose? Some ledger manipulation thing or something, or was just fat fingered?

in the past when such has occurred, it was due to someone doing some custom client stuff and making a mistake, or so they said. unless the sender comes forward here, we'll never know.
reversible? nope.

whoever mined block #400893 and collected the fee can return them if they choose to do so. bitfury did that in the past. (someone correct me if I'm mistaken.) don't know if that was just a mistake or not.

Oh that could not be fun for the stomach or heart watching that happen. Never tinkered with the miner fee and presumed it was somewhat fixed.

It would be real nice if it turned out to be the guy who was flooding the network with spam transactions.

In the transaction to that address just prior to the send there was a receive for the same exact amount....what might be the significance of that transaction? I don't know; it's starting to look like a manipulation to me.
EDIT: But for what reason? There's a couple pass throughs with that address.....strange.

Asicminer aka friedcat returned it. but my memory is meh don't take it for granted that I am correct.

oh, this is a very expensive mistake, i saw before small mistakes, one time i write 100.000 satoshis for 10.000 (only one 0 mistake) but nothing like 15 btc. He wasted more money on fees than he / she send.

I just hope this is not a mistake that is made by someone who invested a lot of time and money in bitcoin. I can`t imagine doing such a massive mistake and getting over it easily. Hopefully a rich guy messing around to get some attention or for any other "funny" reason.

I feel bad to whoever did this (imagine the moment they realize what they did). Lucky to whoever mined that block (hit the jackpot). I doubt if the person who mined it, would think of return it (unfortunately) unless it's someone that its known at least. Either way hoping for the sender to get it back somehow.

It might seem funny or even fortunate for such luck in that large a transaction fee but Im thinking its a bad mistake for bitcoin overall if this is easily possible. If such mistakes are made and irreversible by a normal client sending coins it reflects badly on the whole network usage. I just hope it was a very customised send and probably a company that can write off the loss, hopefully no one person can ever do this while drunk or careless 'fat finger' type mistakes. Ive always argued if BTC ever gets big it has to be idiot proof, shed that elitist technical origin if we want the whole world able to use this coin network and its likely a benefit overall

Holy fuck, who would fucking send 3 BTC with 15 BTC in fees? That's unbelievable. Some sort of error, I guess? Perhaps trying to type 0.00015, but instead typing 15 BTC to an unlucky bitcoin owner? Lucky for whoever mined block # 400893 though, must be a big payoff...

Seems like simple human mistake by a small level trader. I feel sorry for the sender and who have mined the block with that transaction?
