4. Foundry USA Pool refunded an accidentally paid transaction fee of 8.18 BTC, worth approximately $777,000.
The Bitcoin mining pool with the highest total hash rate, Foundry USA Pool, has refunded an accidentally overpaid Bitcoin transaction fee worth approximately $777,000 (8.18 BTC). On December 19, Foundry USA Pool mined Bitcoin block 875475, which included a transaction where the sender attached a fee of 8.18 BTC, exceeding the necessary fee by 91,127 times. On Friday, Foundry posted on social media that it had contacted the sender who 'accidentally' paid the fee. The mining pool confirmed that it 'after careful consideration' refunded the transaction fee to the sender; otherwise, the fee would have been distributed to the mining clients contributing hash power to the Foundry pool. 'Please note that this decision was made after careful consideration, and we will continue to handle such cases on a case-by-case basis,' Foundry added. This is not the first time a large Bitcoin mining pool has refunded an unusually high Bitcoin transaction fee due to an accidental event. In November 2023, Antpool refunded a transaction fee of 83.6 BTC, worth $3.1 million at the time. Currently, Foundry USA Pool has a hash rate of approximately 280 EH/s, nearly double that of its closest competitor, Antpool. - Original text

9. The mother of 26-year-old former OpenAI researcher claims there are many doubts surrounding his death, and Musk stated, 'This doesn't look like a suicide.'
The mother of 26-year-old former OpenAI researcher Suchir Balaji tweeted that his apartment was ransacked, with signs of a struggle in the bathroom, and based on bloodstains, it seemed someone fought him in the bathroom. However, authorities closed the case as a 'suicide.' Musk replied, 'This doesn't look like a suicide.' Possibly influenced by this news, the meme coin named after Suchir Balaji surged over 280% for a short time, currently valued at $16.1 million. The background of the incident is that on December 14, 26-year-old former OpenAI researcher Suchir Balaji was found dead in his San Francisco apartment. Suchir left OpenAI earlier this year and publicly expressed concerns that the company violated U.S. copyright law in developing the ChatGPT chatbot. The San Francisco Chief Medical Examiner's Office stated, 'The manner of death was ruled a suicide.' OpenAI is currently embroiled in legal disputes with multiple publishers, authors, and artists for allegedly using copyrighted material as training data for its AI. Notably, Musk himself has had a complicated relationship with OpenAI. In March of this year, Musk sued OpenAI and its CEO Sam Altman in San Francisco Superior Court for breach of contract, stating that Altman and OpenAI violated an agreement made when the AI research company was founded to develop technology for the benefit of humanity rather than profit. Musk claimed that OpenAI's recent relationship with tech giant Microsoft undermined the company's original commitment to public, open-source general AI. - Original text
