🚨 Bithumb users may be asked to return Bitcoin received by mistake
Attention is turning to the Bithumb platform after statements indicating that some users who sold Bitcoin ($BTC ) due to a technical glitch may face legal claims to return it.
Regulators clarified that the case may be based on the principle of "unjust enrichment," with lawyers believing that the scales tip in favor of Bithumb, especially since no promotional offering included promises to distribute hundreds of Bitcoins.
The critical element in the legal dispute will be whether users were aware that the deposit was a technical error before deciding to sell. If prior knowledge is established, the chances of asset recovery may be enhanced; otherwise, the case will enter a more complex legal territory.
This incident highlights the risks of technical failures on trading platforms and the importance of clear legal frameworks to protect both users and platforms in a rapidly evolving market.
