I hope that the owner of the money will be asked for a "buyout" - because to be so stupid is simply inexcusable so that he will pay the tax on stupidity.
If you got so much money and don't look at the numbers you're typing in it means you're not very smart. I hope this case will teach him something.

Owning a lot of money will also require us to be knowledgeable or be very careful when it comes to transacting online.
We know crypto is different from traditional banking, it's decentralized and transactions are irreversible.

I guess for a person to make this costly mistake if there is, he might be drunk or something.

That's for sure, losing millions of money for a simple mistake is something one cannot easily forget.

It's pretty weird how this transaction was made in the first place. i mean some wallets would actually let you know that you are paying necessarily high fee for a transaction. I think this is part of the reason why the fees for making eth transactions have increased lately.

Obviously, he knows what he is doing.
You don't f*ck things up like that even when you are drunk.

Is it really for good will or is it just another man who is seeking attention.
That happens when you are rich for a long time.  Grin

There are so many speculations about this, there is another similar transactions like this and it happen days apart, people say there is a compromise another one said it was intentional because it's coming from a hacked account, honestly it's hard to understand how this things happen because the funds is outrageously high, and there's no explanation yet, and we cannot trace who did it.

I think this is a trick to get attention. Because in order to have such a huge fortune (over $ 2 million), every transaction needs to be very careful and carefully checked, so that confusion is not possible. Therefore, I still think this is just a way to draw attention to crypto
Of course, with this kind of mistakes and as blockchain is transparent, sooner or later it will draw some attention. But I doubt that it was done by mistakes, this is very shady and the only reason that this individual did this is to hide something and colluding or conspiring with the miners with his illegal wealth here. Very intelligent move, but sorry everything is being seen in blockchain.

I think it will draw some attention but some might see this in a negative way. Like for example, if they somehow did make this kind of mistake, then there's no turning back. You just wasted your money and there's no authority that could help you since transactions are irreversible like for example, Bitcoin.

Also with this kind of shady move, people will more likely to stereotype cryptocurrency as illegal. We don't really know if this was intentional or not but one thing is certain, hit is a pretty stupid thing to do, even if it's intentionally trying to launder money or not.

That's a huge mistake, like all of us here I also wonder what kind of wallet he is using for him not to notice that he is using a very huge fee for a very small amount.  How can someone do that? Does he want to be a part of some dark history of Etherium?
Therefore be careful before making a transaction, because most people do not check before making a transaction. Such as wallet address,
number of coins, and transaction fees. These three things must be considered, because many people make mistakes in all three of these
things

There are rumors that it was still not a mistake and the story is related to extortion and fraud - it was not a single transaction and in General it all looks very strange and stupid... Apparently, the case here is not as simple as it seemed initially.

this will be a big problem for Etherum, if they don't fix this problem, chances are the ethereum platform will be increasingly avoided,
Fee is very expensive and the community is disappointed

I suspect this should be a miner giveaway.. cause i dont see how such mistake could happen.. when you're transferring your funds via metamask or mew the gas fee is set automatically or else the user choose to increase or decrease the amount of transaction fee.. but if this is a mistake.. I only pray he/she dont end up committing suicide

I think that people are already starting to constantly avoid this blockchain. I know a lot of people creating their projects and none of them even think of using the Ethereum blockchain. everyone wants fast and cheap transactions

Perhaps it was an act of money laundering or charity. Because the mining fee belongs to only 2 groups of miners

In all my ethereum transactions ranging from tens of dollars to thousands of dollars, I have never being charged as high as $50, as a suggested fee, the highest I think I have been charged should be $35 on Metamask trying to trade on a new project platform. I declined it however and would later have to set my preferred fee. What happened to this person is either an error or he didn't check well. I can't say it's a deliberate action.
