This is the first time I saw an error in the blocks. Just wow! What the hell happened? Lol.

I think that was intentionally, the sender set the miner fee with 291BTC IMHO
You are not just lucky to mine that fee, you can have a long vacation in any big countries you choose.

I feel the same, it was intentional, then they mine it so they can get away with that huge amount. But somehow, somewhere, someone called out a foul, then pretending it to be a mistake, offers a charity instead. Cheesy

I don't know if it's a clever or wicked idea, what do you think?

A transaction fee of 291.2409 Bitcoins is not nothing.
But it may be that this is a gift for miners or something like that.

This is not any error.... as long as I understand, this is just yet another case of some guy making a big mistake when trying to make a transaction, the mistake being that you send a ridiculously high fee. I don't understand how ended up paying 291 tho, the comma is way off.

That's a very nice transaction. Hasn't happened to me in the past, I've always been very careful when both sending and receiving Bitcoin to the correct addresses. There should, however, be protection implemented in Bitcoin clients to protect people against such mistakes.

The transaction cost of Bitcoin is really low and that is because also that there are not that many people are using it and the banks also hate it because now more people are using Bitcoin and that is perfect. The transaction time is also faster than your banks so that is also nice for Bitcoin, you see that Bitcoin will be the future money.

They didn't have to give it back, to be fair, so I appreciate this gesture. With that being said, I can think of a million other organizations that could have used that value for a much better cause. But, at least it will do some good, hopefully.

Yeah, I'm not sure if the bitcoin foundation can gain the trust back it had... before they waisted it. I would have taken my lifetime membership fee back when I could have done. Cheesy

I think they refunded because they have a business to run and they rely on customers. I guess at least a big part of their users might have gone elsewhere if they would have shown no honesty.

What I don't understand is why no one claimed that loss. Was it bad money or something?

giving bribes so they can keep some good amount of bitcoins to themselves without complains?

They should wait some more time at least

What? They could say straight away "sorry, but we're keeping it". It was only their good gesture to offer the refund, but nobody claimed it.

And you made it sound like Bitcoin Foundation is some sort of authority resolving bitcoin disputes. They're not and never were.

I would guess BitClub decided to donate one half of the bounty to the Bitcoin Foundation to appease the Bitcoin community so as to not start an uprising against them and the other half they will keep to themselves. Maybe BitClub will spread some 45 Bitcoins among their shareholders and the remaining 100 coins will go to the owners' personal Bitcoin wallet Wink

Wouldn't that mean that BitClub is now claiming the bitcoins, with their acts as it wouldn't be easy to retrieve back the bitcoins that were given away, even though there is still a chance that the 'real' owner of the coins would ask to get it back? It's going to be a huge blow on their pool's reputation I guess.

But if I recall correctly, BitClub said they'll share a portion of that fee with their customers (those who purchased cloud mining with them).

You don't recall correctly.

Why pay more if you can pay less. It is nice transfer fee - but honestly speaking I will pay more transfer fee. Grin

There are no ways to stop this from happening other than being sober when you are doing bitcoin transactions. I just fail to see how anyone would send this retarded amount of BTC for fees unless you are really high on some serious shit. It's your responsibility to send the correct fee, not the miner's to give this fee back to you.

There are now many people that is going to use Bitcoin because they see the advantage of it so that is nice for the Bitcoin because it will also works well.
And banks hate Bitcoin because the transaction cost of the Bitcoin is really low and that is perfect for the people that is already using Bitcoin.
