By the way, if I were F2Pool owner, I wouldn't refund transaction fees to Paxos. If it was a random guy, okay, I would be kind but financial institutes like PayPal and its partner Paxos, they deserve to pay for their mistakes. There is absolutely no reason for F2Pool to refund, who is here to determine whether that fee was a mistake or not? The fact is, you are the one who chooses to pay fees. I can make a transaction with $1000 fee and then cry and ask for refund, I can make a transaction with $10 fee and do the same. Also, the result of Twitter vote was Distribute it to miners.
And I'd subtract a finder's fee and return the rest. We should promote fair play in bitcoin and show the world that it's not every man for himself and not all of us are here to take each other's money.
I agree, Paxos made a mistake and they should pay for it, but why would we punish them so hard? Take 10% fee from them and return the rest. Their reputation is tarnished by this whole thing anyway, let's not kick them when they're down.
