Fat-Fingered Mistake

Source

For those that don’t know what a fat-fingered mistake is, a fat-fingered mistake is a general term or word used to describe an error made by someone with a fat or large finger when they mistakenly hit a wrong keyboard when they are trying to type. Sometimes it can also happen when they are trying to tap on an interface or select content.

However, this fat-fingered mistake wasn’t a typo error but an error made in an NFT purchase. An NFT collector who deals in the purchase and collection of NFTs has recently purchased an NFT for 100 ETH that was meant to be free digital art. Speculations are ongoing that maybe he intended to pay $100 for it or maybe something else was at play.

The mistake was made after the launch of the OpenSea Pro Marketplace and probably the NFT collector was trying to get a special rare NFT collection but there’s also another opinion of it being a wash trading that’s going on (wash trading is a process in which an individual or entity buy and sell the same financial product with the sole purpose of manipulating the market).

There was also a report of a crypto punk NFT holder that is worth $135,000 mistakenly sent or coveted his NFT to a burn address and he has been unable to recover it since then ( a burn address is an address that is not owned or operated by anyone so it’s impossible to access or get anyone asset sent to it) this mistake has led the NFT crypto punk holder lose half of his asset or worth.
