- Talk about fat fingers.
On Oct. 21, 2021, $BTC traders on the crypto exchange
@BinanceUS
were left scrambling after the asset plunged within minutes, with no apparent reason, while other #bitcoin markets operated normally.
As previously reported, bitcoin prices fell from around $65,760 to as low as $8,200 at 11:34 UTC (7:34 a.m. ET), then quickly bounced back up to almost exactly where it was before.
A http://Binance.US spokesperson told CoinDesk at the time that the crash was due to a bug in the trading systems of one of their “institutional traders.”
The actual identity of the investor remained a mystery so far, but new tweets from a former Alameda Research employee reveal that the trading firm may have been the cause of the ruckus.
