South Korea’s well-known #cryptocurrency exchange Bithumb has apologized to its users over a serious technical error, as a result of which the company mistakenly transferred more than 40 billion dollars worth of #bitcoin to users.
Following the incident, severe temporary volatility was observed on the platform.
According to the French news agency AFP, the company stated that “on Friday, during a promotional campaign, a small amount was supposed to be sent to 695 users.”
“However, due to an error, each user was sent approximately 2,000 Bitcoins, bringing the total to around 620,000 Bitcoins.” @Plasma
