Topic: Somebody paid $310,000 in transaction fee to send 0.1eth - page 3. (Read 983 times)
how that thing is possible? i mean i not use all ETH wallet actually. But see something like that only happen in bitcoin wallet that we put fee manually. On ETH sometime it decided with ETH network itself.
Maybe that person is not old here in cryptoworld. Because for me if you are old here you can know where di you put the the amount of coin you send the transaction fees. But maybe even he is old or have alot of knowledge but Im so sad to him because of that happen and we cannot know what is the purpose of sending the ethereum maybe it is for the business or project or personal needs.
Ouch that hurt! he was drunk doing that I guess, I wonder what is he doing now? is he still alive? 
. Well lesson for him not carefully to set gas fees.

Yeah I heard about it! Probably someone try to sent 310000$ with a 0,1eth transaction. I think he is very sad now:) But miners are funny.
Sparkpool has frozen the amount and said that if the sender claims to get back the amount, they will give back. So, that's not a problem anymore. Some people are saying that it is a reward to the miners.
There are 2 possible scenarios to this.
1. Maybe this is a newbie mistake but why would a newbie buy huge amount of ETH knowing that he/she is just a newbie.
2. There is something fishy around it. Maybe there is a meaning why this happened.
Either way, its an early Christmas gift for the miners.
I think this is a purposeful act , I have never seen a really stupid person to be able to use a huge sum of money to make gas fees. And MEW never happened this situation before 1. Maybe this is a newbie mistake but why would a newbie buy huge amount of ETH knowing that he/she is just a newbie.
2. There is something fishy around it. Maybe there is a meaning why this happened.

These jokes are not comparable what they send is only 0.1 ETH while the transaction is so large how many times that?
Is this a mistake why this happened?

I guess the mistake came from adjusting the fees himself.
This shouldn't even be allowed to happen. There should be a certain fee limit one can adjust . I wish this was some error otherwise the ether has to be refunded to the poor owner.

There, then this block was canceled in order to return his money to the bad guy, because it would not be fair!

Can this be a mare inexperience or just a mistake , a not careful person. I think is funny to see such transaction. I'm even feeling sick myself seeing that.
Omg! this is really so dumb, it's such a huge waste of money because of the lack of attention when sending money. I'm sure his boss will fire him and maybe kill him because of that, but I think there is some ways to recover this lost money, by contacting support maybe, or doing another trick, but this thing is really so stupid and horrible. People should be more careful when sending money, especially when the amount of money is so huge like that, any mistake will cost you so much.
It was not deliberate and It was a very bad mistake. Have seen this news on twitter but I think a sincere miner should be able to return a good percentage of the fund even if he cant return all. Funny thing is that the newbie wont see such information cause they need it more though anyone can be a victim of such incident if not careful. 
I have heard that it was not a mistake because it is highly impossible to make such mistake. But it was a money laundering method. 
I do not understand it how they get their Ethers back.. from miners?

That's funny. And someone has left my life) Is a serious error and people not physically able to give the same amount. This is unfortunate. Just imagine what was going on in the soul of the sender after he saw his deal...I even myself felt bad after I realized what he did) Be careful.
If this is a mistake, I do not understand why he can see the transaction fee of 2100 ETH. Because when transferring ETH for gas and gas limit, it is necessary to adjust both parameters correctly so that the fee can be 2100 ETH
This is unbelievable, was the the person sleeping when he was making the transaction? I think there is something behibde the transaction.
I do not know if this person didnt know what they did and switch the sending amount with the transaction fee or what happened. But I think their boss will be giving them a talk tomorrow morning on why their customer didnt get the payment they were suposse to.
That is 2100 ethereum to the miners. As the comments say "They must be happy!"

I was also surprised when I saw this, but I think it was intentional
IF you tracked the wallet address, similar approach was done 3 times consecutively
The question is why ??
I am wondering now how the sender feels this time.
This is not a small thing to be called a wrong one. this is a total mess for the owner.
If i am the boss i will not just fire this one, I will let him work for it.

I doubt that miners will show leniency and return the coins. Yes, if this is a mistake, it has cost someone dearly. Be careful when sending transactions. Although, I think this does not threaten us.

If that image is not edited then that must be the worst thing that happened to that person. It's the first time seeing this and it's rediculous that this happen without checking how much he pay for 0.1eth.
