You can move it to trade discussion board as no one has come out yet and claim its scam.
By the way it could have been either some glitch or someone purposely just carried out weird transactions... Because those transactions seem to be made between specific wallets.

I am not sure where to post it. I have just seen a transaction where sent amount Value: 0.02 Ether ($2.95) and Transaction Fee:
420 Ether ($61,849.20). Reference: https://etherscan.io/tx/0x464e50e8ade15ad883f80fd173f6afd85efdf15413892625fe0146fbe5fecd92
Let me know if it requires to move on another board. Thanks.

I think there are something unusual going on with ETH.

Here is another one: https://etherscan.io/tx/0x1f73b43dc9c48cc131a931fac7095de9e5eba0c5184ec0c5c5f1f32efa2a6bab
And this one is multiple times larger than the one above. It's 2100ETH

Not sure if this is intentional or error.

Edit:
Interesting timing:

Both from same address (!)

This was intentional.
