$310,000 boy just for that transaction fee.
I wouldn't know what I can do to myself if I commit that myself. I hope that good will shall come and the amount will be sent back.
It was said earlier it happened on the bitcoin blockchain several years ago and the pool who received the botched amount sent as the the transaction fee resent it back to the sending address. So you never know as this recent incident happened just today about 21 hours 21 minutes ago. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Yes, I'm aware that it happened recently. It's a lot of money and hoping that this kind of incident won't happen again. ![Undecided](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/undecided.gif)

To be honest, I thought it was a joke. However, looking at your screenshots and comments, I realized that it was not. It's terrible. It is interesting whether it is possible to sue this employee from the court through the court because the amount is too large.

The sender might have some defects that need to be corrected, which could be eye defect. Come to think of it, he should have then allowed someone else to get it done for for him, because I am trying to imagine the condition he would be now. If someone like me, who has nothing or not even rich, makes such a mistake, I will just quit.

it hurts by just looking on it. I don't know that thing was possible on ethereum blockchain. Why did he/she not double checked it. If you sending that kind of amount you should check it twice or more. Hoping that the miners sent back the transaction fee the the sender's address.

had seen the news in the media crew a few hours ago I thought aimed at the miners, it looks like someone was not an ordinary person by see all the eth wallet transactions of that person so many eth collected by him but it is likely that there was an error between the fee box and box inverted shipping

Thats crazy ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) It shows us why we need to check 2 times before we approve any transaction. They must got hard pains after they realize what they have done.

Wallets should really be setting a transaction fee that is considerable to have its confirmation faster, I can imagine how the person's face after learning he sent so much money as transactions after sending few bucks to someone.
Don't you think its the ZERO or any other number on his keyboard that stuck when editing the transaction fee that causes this misfortune?

This is an honest mistake and I'm sure wherever he is now You would be explain himself I guess he got it mixed up or maybe he was high But I also heard of a case where The miner mining the block was actually asked to refund the money in other not to cause commotion or inflate gas fee, its an honest mistake tho and i feel really sad for him because he would probably lose his job

Wow! Why would somebody do that? and what has caused that? Is that some bug? If it is , then miners have been so happy about it!

Poor guy, it is unbelievable to pay so much money for a small transaction. I hope there will be a solution for a double spending problem and we would not face such awful things in the future. I cannot believe in this still.

That is a large amount of fee, I am sure he will definitely regret his actions. This is why checking is very important, especially when we set the transaction speed (gwei). Because if we mistakenly set gwei, it will cause a higher fee. I hope that the incident will not happen again in the future, because we cannot take our Ethereum anymore.

That is a huge amount of fee and the person who did the transaction must be really fucked up. This could be a developer mistake by not checking the gas fee. I have read in some comments that it's possible to be return by the miner of that block. Thats if the miner wants to take it back otherwise it must have been a huge amount of tip and what lucky miner.

The amount of 2100 ethereum had been traced to the pool it was sent to. Spark pool stated they will send it back to the one who comes forward to claim it. Which I doubt they will track this individual down so they would need to contact them. If it isnt claimed in an allotted amount of time they will just distribute it among the miners who helped the day the block was mined.

I read about this in the news yesterday and it was really alarming. Although there is alot of speculation going round about it. According to the news, it maybe some kind of glitch the dev should fix or it may be a fraudulent activity. Which ever the case might be , a fix is needed

I believe that is just an accident, but still it is really a bad luck for someone who done it. I feel bad to that person, If that were me, perhaps i wouldn't able to sleep for a week, regretting what has happen.

Wow. What a silly mistake. I think he wanted to send that much money but instead put that number in the gas fees. I want to know if that guy is here and if we can know his situation now.

Thats gotta hurt, Was it done on purpose or by accident or ignorance? Could have been done by a disgruntled employee on their last day on the job....then again why not just send the 2100 eth to your own address, Bizzare
Nice round number though
Maybe it should have been the other way around, send 2100 with 0.1fees
If thats happen to a company,for sure it is a sabotage from a fired employee or force resigned 😂 But that was a huge amount,why not just send it to random address so it might get straight to one of us wallet and he will receive our gratitude lol

That's what happens when you put too much gas price, someone had made same mistake with coinomi wallet last year, they later put measures to prevent that.
