Today in one of the EOS group on whatsapp, it was brought to the group's notice that someone made a shocking or intentional mistake on the Ethereum blockchain. He paid a whooping 2,100 ETH as transaction fee; Worth $311,684. If this was sent to any address probably as a mistake, I assume it might be recoverable but nah this money goes to the MINERS of the blockchain.

This screenshot was not doctored!!! It's real, here's a link to check the transaction on etherscan.io:
