A #Bitcoin user has mistakenly paid an outrageous 8.18 Bitcoin ($808,564) for a single transaction, paying over 98% of the intended transfer amount on fees.
In today’s Bitcoin news, an unlucky user has paid one of the highest Bitcoin transaction fees in history. Per data, he accidentally spent 8.18 BTC ($808,564) on a single transaction.
Transaction Details
Whale Alert drew the crypto community’s attention to the outrageous fee. The on-chain tracker tweeted that a user had just spent 8.18 bitcoin on a single transaction.
Further analysis from Mempool shows that the wallet “bc1qdf” made the blunder on Thursday by 20:27 (UTC). The address moved 0.142 BTC ($14,042) to two addresses for a staggering 8.18 BTC ($808,564) transaction fee.
Mempool shows that the wallet overpaid the transaction cost by 98,720 times the average gas fee on the Bitcoin network. Furthermore, the fee is the second most expensive in the network, lagging only to a user’s 83.65 BTC ($3.1 million at the time) transfer cost.
Meanwhile, data shows that Foundry Services USA is the miner behind the transaction, which was approved at block height 875475.
At the time of writing, the sending wallet’s confirmed balance is 0.042 BTC ($4,067), indicating that the miner has yet to return the overpaid fees. All indications suggest the user mistakenly paid the outrageous fee, but this remains unconfirmed at press time.
