Fat Fingers: a Bored Ape NFT Was Sold for $3K Instead of $300,000

The cryptocurrency industry is no complete stranger to costly mistakes, and the last one appears to have taken place not so long ago. Just a couple of days earlier, the owner Ape # 3457 from the Bored Ape Yach Club collection, inadvertently offered it for a lot less than it is worth.

A lapse of concentration I think. I note a great deal of products every day and just wasn’t taking note correctly. I immediately saw the error as my finger clicked the mouse but a bot sent out a transaction with over 8 ETH of gas charges so it was quickly sniped prior to I could click cancel, and just like that, $250K was gone. – – He said.
- This isn’t the first time something of the kind occurs with an NFT from the BAYC collection.
- Back in August, CryptoPotato reported that somebody offered Mutant Ape 5275 was sold for $17 instead of $54K – – a technique that many consider being blatantly obvious.
