Instead of distributing 2000 Bitcoin to users for 2 dollars, which caused the collapse of the Bitcoin price on Bithumb: details🤯🤯🔥🔥
An internal error caused Bitcoin to drop by 10% on the Bithumb trading platform after mistakenly distributing 2000 BTC!
In one of the strangest moments in the crypto market, users of the “Bithumb” platform woke up to find some of them suddenly very lucky.
Before the platform discovered it was just a fatal keyboard error.
Instead of distributing a random prize worth 2000 Korean won (equivalent to the price of a cup of coffee), 2000 full Bitcoins were mistakenly distributed to hundreds of users.
As usual, the market didn't miss the opportunity; some recipients sold the Bitcoin immediately, causing the price on the platform to collapse by about 10% within minutes, in a scene resembling a “Sell All” button being pressed collectively.
Minutes later, “Bithumb” intervened, suspended the affected accounts, and returned the system to normal, confirming that the “gift” was unintentional and that the damages were quickly controlled.
