Trader who lost $26M to copy-paste error says it’s been ‘max pain’
A trader who lost $25 million after accidentally copying and pasting the wrong transfer address is offering a $2.5 million reward to white hackers in the hopes of getting their money back.
A trader who recently revealed they had lost $25 million back in June after copying in the wrong deposit address says the experience has been “max pain.”
Pseudonymous crypto investor qklpjeth told Cointelegraph that they accidentally transferred 7,912 Renzo restaked ETH (ezETH) — worth $26.4 million at current prices — to a safe contract address on June 19.
Unfortunately, they said they entered the incorrect address and sent the funds to a safe module instead of his own safe, meaning that the tokens were “locked and unable to be withdrawn.”
