The post Bithumb Employee Mistake Sends 2,000 BTC to Users appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
A Bithumb employee accidentally sent around 2,000 $BTC to hundreds of users during an airdrop instead of the intended token, causing Bitcoin to drop about 10% on the exchange. Some users reported receiving 2,000 $BTC rather than the expected 2,000 KRW. The mishap triggered a sharp price reaction locally on Bithumb, though Bitcoin’s broader market remained relatively stable. The incident highlights the risks of human error in crypto operations and the potential market impact of large accidental transfers.
