On Thursday near about 12:00 am ET, another big charged, curious Ethereum transmission arises in which a sender transferred an amount of $86,390 ether (ETH) as a transmission charge of almost $2.6 million.

This is a transaction from the same sender who paid the same fees yesterday to send just $133 worth of ETH. Today’s transaction was mined by the Ethermine pool.

Yesterday’s same sender transferred the volume who charged the same rate for just $133 amount of ETH. Today’s transaction was mined by the Ethermine pool.

The operator of Ethermine Bitfly tweeted :

“We believe that this was an accident and in order to resolve this issue, the tx sender should contact us…immediately,”

Exactly what’s happening? It is not come out but Alex Manuskin, the blockchain researcher at crypto wallet ZenGo, informed to The Block
that it could be a wire and not any black money transactions as some thought for the first.

Manuskin said ,

“A possible explanation could be a mix in the bot code between the sent value and the gas price,”

He added,

“This sender used to send a transaction every 1 minute or so, so this did not look like a human operator. Might be some sort of a trading bot, for some exchange, repeating the same operation”

The Block has connected to Ethermine for the next update and will add this remaining story again as should we hear back.
