Odaily Planet Daily News Stablecoin issuer Paxos admitted in a statement on September 13 that the account that paid nearly 20 BTC in a single transaction in the early morning of September 11 belonged to Paxos. Paxos claims that end users have not been affected and all user funds are safe.
A Paxos spokesperson said that PayPal does not take any responsibility for this because the error was caused by Paxos itself. This transaction affects the operations of Paxos. Paxos customers and end users are not affected, and all customer funds are safe. This was due to a bug in a single transfer, which has now been fixed. Paxos is contacting miners to recover funds.
It is reported that the block containing the transaction has been confirmed by the Bitcoin mining pool F2Pool. (Cointelegraph)
According to previous news, in response to the fact that "a single transaction fee on the Bitcoin chain reached 19.82 BTC at around 1 a.m. on September 11," Wang Chun, co-founder of F2Pool, posted on the X platform that the approximately 20 BTC would be temporarily shelved. If no one claims it within three days, it will be redistributed to miners.
