Someone paid a $300K fee for a $14 Ethereum transaction!

Well im not sure this news is fake or not but it can happen tho. Just last year, i hv sent some eth over to my Bitvest account for a fee which is slightly higher than the amt sent. Lol!  I think i hv accidentally set the gas on fire! Jkjk

I would also assume it is money laundering, especially if the person had some way of knowing specifically who the fee would go to. I would love to know more about this when the investigation is complete.

I think this is a lesson to be learn and a reminder to be very careful when dealing with the transaction fees portion of cryptocurrencies.

It pretty crazy, who is mistake? usually fee is 0.000021 ETH and he was mistake 2100 ETH lol

I was quite surprised when I read this, whether there might be someone who wants to send $ 14 with $ 300 that looks unnatural and very crazy. I think if there is an error problem in the system or maybe he sent $ 300 at a cost of $ 14 that's only reasonable.
