Edit: Paxos have confirmed that they did the transaction and that it was a mistake: https://finance.yahoo.com/news/crypto-miners-debate-500k-bitcoin-063851495.html


I was wondering if the story of who actually did this will have come to light and here we have it.
Actually I am relieved that it wasn't a private person that didn't lose all their saving because of such a silly mistake because this could ruin you.
I also made costly mistakes years ago that still haunt me sometimes but something in this range would just devastating!
