🚨 Bithumb Exception: Is it a $200 million mistake or a stroke of luck?

Today (February 6), the Korean exchange Bithumb shocked the entire crypto community. The BTC price on the platform suddenly plummeted, dropping more than 10% below the global market price, resulting in a huge price gap.📉

What happened?

A serious employee operational error has been widely circulated online. According to analysts from Lookonchain and users on platform X, the exchange allegedly mistakenly issued about 2000 BTC (approximately $200 million at current market price) when distributing Korean won (KRW) rewards!🤯

Chain Reaction:

Some users who received this "big gift" quickly sold off their assets for cash. This directly led to severe fluctuations in internal platform prices and a partial collapse, also causing confusion among arbitrage traders.

Official Status:

Currently, Bithumb has not officially confirmed this "epic airdrop," and the reasons remain undisclosed. However, for a highly liquid exchange, such anomalies typically indicate technical failures or serious human errors.

We are waiting for an official statement: Will the exchange reverse these transactions, or will someone really become wealthy overnight due to this mistake?🍿
