Topic: Be careful with your blockchain transactions (Read 634 times)
I don't know what will i do if like that situation happen to me.. but i know for sure its not a mistake.. someone having that number of ethereum is not a newbie in the crypto market he knows what he is doing
I would not know what to do if I made such a mistake. In general, quite a strange situation, the first time I see this. 
The first time I found out this I was very surprised how could someone make a mistake like this, but from what I saw a lot of weirdness, I thought because I did not understand clearly about transactions like this, the sender himself had more ethereum than the fee.
Here, recently there was a similar case: https://www.coindesk.com/sparkpool-splits-2100-ether-mining-fee-with-accidental-sender
But here the pool went to meet the sender and returned half the amount paid in error.

It could be not a mistake of human, but the mistake of a smart contract
I cant believe that this person sent 0.1 Ether with 2,100 Ether transaction fee. I am pretty sure that this person is crying out right now and just shaking his / her head repeatedly. What will you do if this happens to you? How will you comfort your self at a time like this? 2,100 Ethereum for transaction fee really is a big amount and unfair on that person but a mistake was already made. I hope that he can contact the miner who processed that transaction for reimbursement which is I think possible. Look on the reference below.

I dont even know how this routine took place. I'm using imtoken app to transact my tokens but never ask me for a huge fee. I think he made a mistake on his own or the 3rd party platform he use made a huge trick and he doesn't notice it. If youre in youre right mind would you do that? Im pretty sure there's a reason for this. I really hope the guy made this transaction okay. Cause if it other people maybe they are attempting to commit suicide now.
It was not a mistake, most likely it is some kind of laundering crypto. Such large fee cannot be set by standard wallet.
This is a valuable experience for the future to be better. Mistakes made certainly make regrets because the amount of money is not small. We must be more careful in every transaction and always check.
That's why it's very important to double check your transaction especially if you are going to transact with big amount because one mistake could lead you to a big loss. Whenever i send my transaction i even triple check just to make sure i put the right information. If ever that thing happens to me i will have a very bad day.
It's not unfair to that person, since that person must have chosen such big gas price. There was similar case with coinomi around a year ago, user got refunded, let's see what happens here.
This was a hot news, but it seems to be so much regret full because that happen. What i can't think is that, how could that really happen? doesn't he/she don't check the amount of fee being set before sending the transaction?
it's very sad to see this transactions caused by users. It is not a small amount, I think users can still cancel the transaction shortly before all transactions are confirmed by the blockchain. but indeed this is the risk of transacting in blockchain. because it is independent we cannot reverse transactions. so before making a transaction it is better to check and make sure before submitting.
The net doesnt have a mechanism to prevent this type of transactions? I think all modern wallet do not allow sending a fee that is over certain threshold. they should adopt this and code it in all cryptos.
It happened a long time ago, and usually i am not interested for this topic.
You know, i think that it's all is normal.
You know, i think that it's all is normal.
aren't we when going to the final verification for the transaction, is there a detailed description including fees? so we know the fee we will pay before verifying our transaction. maybe it's a system bug, or indeed there is theft there.
It is generally generally necessary to have real care. I still believe that cryptocurrency today can very seriously require great care. Any transaction now has a very serious problem, if today you sent a transaction, then it will not be changed.
This news is about last 2 weeks ago. For sure they are depressed and they did not know how they back his ethereum but they will not back again because once you set the fees there is no turning back or no solution for that. Alqays be careful of what we sent because it is not good to set fees more than you sent to your wallet. Watchful is the best for you to not cry in the end I hope that man will still okay or he is billionaire.
As for me, it looks like some kind of money laundering. Not so long ago, a similar situation was with Bitcoin, there, too, some pool received a reward of several btc in a block with a few bucks transaction. If there were regulatory authorities in the crypto industry, they would definitely have been interested in this incident.
This is not new i mean i've seen something like this before. I think it wasn't done by accident coz everyone is checking the transaction fee before we send it right. It is somehow suspicious coz it could be stolen ETH's or yeah might be money laundering but we never know lol
in my opinion there is a system error, there is no possibility of such a fee, for returns you can contact the admin directly that you can give responsibility, maybe your ether will be returned

i dont thinkthat this transaction is a mistake as we can see its happen several times very strange, i think he have a purpose why he did that and i dont know why, the etheruem he waste is can change lives. https://etherscan.io/tx/0x1f73b43dc9c48cc131a931fac7095de9e5eba0c5184ec0c5c5f1f32efa2a6bab
he trying to send that big amount, but he entered on transaction fee instead, I think he is drunk doing that so what a big mistake for him, lesson for him to not doing transaction when drunk.
Is that a joke? Why do you think he / she is drunk. I think this is an organization that is testing the ETH network and this is a purposeful action

I think this is a data sent by a robot. It is impossible for a normal human to send several transactions at the same time. The transaction volume of this address is very large.https://etherscan.io/tx/0x1f73b43dc9c48cc131a931fac7095de9e5eba0c5184ec0c5c5f1f32efa2a6bab
It has happened somedays ago. I didn't track the event though. Sparkpool has said to refund it to the owner if he claim. Don't know what happened later. Hope for the betterment. Some said, he intentionally sent it as a reward to the miner.
really? But there are many miners who constantly handle blocks and how can they get the fairest? I think this is a mistake and hope he will get money back from Sparkpool. 
You should always be careful with such things and this is the obvious disadvantage of Ethereums blockchain. It is simply unbelievable, thats why always double check the transactions amount, the gas price and gweis.
I have seen the transaction hash and I don't think it is an error. I think the sender made the tx fee to be high intentionally. Maybe he/she was doing a giveaway to a lucky miner
This is a supposedly very old new and it looks like you just knew about it. But though it's good just for those like you who haven't heard of the news. Also the transaction seems to be an error as this rarely happen. So it's either the sender is a total novice or he didn't take note of the development before making the transaction

This would be a fully regrettable act that had been done by anyone. Perhaps the owner miss on entering the amount of fees being used to sent the transaction.

Transaction of $13 worth of ETH with a fee that is worth $200k! Damn! That’s a lot , I just don’t really get what happened right there. Why would anyone do such a thing, if it was intentionally ?
I’m not going to make such a mistake unless the wallet I’m using doesn’t show me the fees they charge for a transaction. I’m always very careful when making transaction and by the way such a thing has not happened to me before, despite I have made use of several wallets. Maybe these guys chose a custom fee and they were aware of it.
It was 291 btc of fees

It was unbelievable when I saw it and for a moment I thought about how devastated I would feel I made that sort of mistake and then I realised I am safe with imtoken and eidoo
I think it's just a mistake or maybe there is some whales are trying to test maximum of transaction fee cause if this is real so it'll be very terrible for eveyrone in this crypto world and I think nobody will make any transaction in BTC or ETH again
It happens, I know that this mistake happened to a BTC sender too, in 2016 someone paid 219 BTC fee to send 0.001 BTC. So sh*t really happens...
I had to google that right now. Couldn't believe it.

In almost all cases, the main cause of error is the human factor. And in work, even with a perfectly perfect system, attention and concentration are required.
Maybe it was done for a reason. Strange that a man could be so wrong. I always check 100 times the correctness of all entered data, especially when I send a large amount. So I think that this person is acting this way on purpose, apparently he had reason to do so.
Sometimes we just accept the transaction pop up without reading through it to make sure all is as it should. This is a valuable lesson, I can't imagine losing such huge amount on transaction fees.
This is very surprising the guy has a lot of transactions already he is not a newbie to send a huge amount like that, if this is accidental this will be his biggest mistakes, but I wonder who is that guy or company and what's the real reason why it happens, the transactions is only 14 days old based while I'm posting this.
It wasn't aostake IMHO. For a person to hold such amount of ETH, such a person is knowledgeable about gas and its workings. Probably he sent it to reward the miners. Every wallet I've used have a defa3gas price as well for the person to adjust it and place it so high, he was aware of his doings.
there are articles saying that it was really intentional. but for real reasons why he had done that, we don't know, they won't go in public for such elaboration of this tx. maybe for all we know, it is his account also. but never see such high amount of tx fee. like unbelievable! we just all hope that it is not a mistake of putting such amount just for tx fee.

This is a very old news lol
And I don’t think it was a mistake because the same wallet did it 3 times
Simply use imtoken always, it uses the best and standard gas for you any time

It takes just some few clicks to set your own transaction fees. The process is even partly automatic as it tells you which number to choose. This is common to almost all the wallet providers of the ETH blockchain.
Always remember to check, https://ethgasstation.info/ for the values to choose.

I think that the commission of such a large size for the transaction was set up specifically and processed by the necessary miner.
For what purpose it was done, I do not know. I can only guess at the guess.
Maybe someone needed to transfer a large amount of money so that no one could track what address they got from.

It is always important to check before finalizing transaction.
I check all the options several times, especially if the transfer of a large amount. I cannot even imagine such a situation.

I just saw the transaction this time having a fee this big. I hope this is not an intention to commit money laundering.

I believe that was done on purpose, because a person with such large amount of coin cannot make such a huge mistake of spending such an huge amount on fees.
There is nothing like being careful when making blockchain transactions, everything is stated in the wallet even before you make a transfer unless you don't understand simple instructions given this wallet providers.
Of course this is intentional action from someone, This is the first case I saw the same transaction and of course no one would make such a mistake There is nothing like being careful when making blockchain transactions, everything is stated in the wallet even before you make a transfer unless you don't understand simple instructions given this wallet providers.

I don't think it's a mistake. It's too much of a difference to be a mistake. Most likely it is money laundering, well, or some other operation incomprehensible to me.
It could be, everyone have their way to solve their own problems. But what I'm thinking is, this is the newest way to burn large amounts of ethereum in 1 transaction. What he did was something that made ethereum quite rarely.

This mistake looks very strange imho. How can this be possible?
This guy must be blind, guided by this miner - this is the only possible case here I assume
I really don't see how his could have been so confused. If a person has such a large number of Ethereum, then surely he has experience in crypto. Strange that he could allow such a mistake.

What's done is done. So this "lucky" person should not think about the past or the anger and despair burns him from the inside.
well, he have 3 transaction with 3 different GAS value, of course all of them with a illogical fee. so i ask is that a mistake ? i think it was intentional. look at the first.

If this is not an accident move then it is good on the owner side as he or she is not having trouble.
IF this is an accident then it will serve as a good example to make your transaction always clear.
check every gas that you will put many times. always put your guard on and be clear!

This is a very ridiculous accident how con some one in his/her eight senses send such small amount of etheruem with a very high fees, or may be there is more to the story then it appears. Hope the sender will be able to trace the minner and get a redound if that is possible.
It seems to me that every cryptocurrency user should be careful when making transactions. Thus, in general, you can send your coins to the wrong address, and not just exceed the limit of payment for gas.

Miners also need to eat. Of course this irony. I don’t even know how to make a monstrous mistake. I don't know what's up with this man today. Maybe he lost everything.Maybe he was too eager to send ether to the address that was addressed, he did not see the details of the fees to be paid and did not check the fees when sending the ether to myetherwallet..
It is possible that he did not pay attention to these costs and could only try, evidence of practicing the way blockchain works. We can see many people making mistakes without being aware or hypnotized. This can happen when we are careless and affected by something, so be careful and vigilant it must be done.
I think it will be very difficult to determine which of the mining pools processed this transaction, but, even if he can find out which of the pools processed this transaction, then there are no guarantees that this money will be returned to him, in fact he himself is to blame for this.

I cant believe that this person sent 0.1 Ether with 2,100 Ether transaction fee. I am pretty sure that this person is crying out right now and just shaking his / her head repeatedly. What will you do if this happens to you? How will you comfort your self at a time like this? 2,100 Ethereum for transaction fee really is a big amount and unfair on that person but a mistake was already made.

Its not something problem with blockchain,the user who wrongly entered the value and resulted losing all his money.It is very huge amount to be lost but when someone in that much hurry then don't do this much worth of transaction because money is important in this world. https://etherscan.io/tx/0x1f73b43dc9c48cc131a931fac7095de9e5eba0c5184ec0c5c5f1f32efa2a6bab
I want to laugh but also feel sorry, this is very difficult to believe and whether due to human error or the system also needs to be questioned, I used to use mew and it made me confused. now I still use the mew account but use the imtoken application which can adjust the gas well and minimize error

I have seen this problem since 10 days ago. And I believe this is just a small incident from someone. No one is stupid enough to adjust gas fees like thathttps://etherscan.io/tx/0x1f73b43dc9c48cc131a931fac7095de9e5eba0c5184ec0c5c5f1f32efa2a6bab
Yes it's not a default fees. Someone did intentionally changed there are no way a person would be confused between sending amount and transaction fees.
It could be some sort of experiment or some miners practicing their preciseness in selecting the block.
In block chain you must be careful with your transaction. If by any chance you send money to a wrong person the it's hard to get your money back. Infact you won't get your money back. So be careful.

Yes. Caution is the only option as there are nearly no way to solve any problem you make on a transaction.
I too remember making a mistake of sending $100 worth of bitcoin twice to a single use address. And bitcoin was about $200 a piece at that time.
Never got that back but I started checking every detail at least twice before pressing that button.

It has already posted in the forum a while ago and I find it suspesious whether it's coincidence or a planned mistake. No person in their sanity would do such kind of transactions if nobody takes benefit from that.
Before making a transaction, first thing you should do is check the gas and fees. That will prevent you from mistakes.
Most likely the transaction was made in a hurry and for this reason he was wrong. But I doubt that miner will decide to help this poor fellow.
Thats very unfortunate, well if that happens to me I would feel frustration as well. See, blockchain tech is very good and being anonymous would be one of the good thing about thing and much faster but still there is no perfect system at some cases there are still mistakes or glitches.
It happens, I know that this mistake happened to a BTC sender too, in 2016 someone paid 219 BTC fee to send 0.001 BTC. So sh*t really happens...
It is very unnatural that the fee is that much, honestly I have never seen it all this time, if this has happened it will be very severe in the future, hopefully this can be overcome as soon as possible because it is an unreasonable fee, if I think.
It reminds me of a news program in my country, a few weeks ago.
A man gets into a tunnel with his car. When entering a flashlight attracts attention. The driver was curious ... He came back from the first roundabout and entered the tunnel again. Flash still there! The man was getting greedy and came again third times and the flash was still there. A few days later, they sent three traffic tickets to the man's house because speed limit it tunnel:)
In this friend he succumbed to his curiosity and he may have sent by paying high transaction fee again and again.

It has happened somedays ago. I didn't track the event though. Sparkpool has said to refund it to the owner if he claim. Don't know what happened later. Hope for the betterment. Some said, he intentionally sent it as a reward to the miner.
Intentionally sent it? That person must be in serious cash to send such amount of money. Infact, reward for what is he giving the miner? Somethings are just difficult to comprehend in this life.
Someone in that reddit thread mentioned possible money laundering, but I'm not sure how that would work.
I've read someone on twitter and said that it was like that but I can't understand either on how it should work. 
This is a very old news lol
And I don’t think it was a mistake because the same wallet did it 3 times

Not that old news I guess. They say it's programming error and not a mistake while the fund was freeze until the sender claim it.

Likely, money laundering issue is out here
OP, you really need to catch up with the times. Think we can all safely say for now, it wasn't a mistake. Because as it has happened with Bitcoin before when making an expensive fee by mistake, the sender has asked for help. In fact, in the past, Bitcoin miners have returned the mistaken fees, you can google it to read more about it.
So many errors in transactions, people keep doing, but it's rarely the fee.

That was a long day ago since there are some threads which already discussed, but I think its useful to remind someone to keep seeing the price fee before confirming to send.
I've recently seen discussion on Reddit about that, this wasn't done by accident.
https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/asapta/someone_just_paid_2100_eth_for_transaction_fees/
The jury's still out on why someone would do this, but I'm sure there's some explanation behind it.

This mistake looks very strange imho. How can this be possible?
This guy must be blind, guided by this miner - this is the only possible case here I assume

Simply use imtoken always, it uses the best and standard gas for you any time
