Someone paid $3.1 million in transaction fees for a bitcoin (BTC) transfer on Thursday. Bitcoin miner Antpool was rewarded for mining the block. It received the standard 6.25 BTC as well as 85.2163 BTC in fees for all transactions included in the block, on-chain data shows.
Today's transfer, mined in block 818087, becomes the largest transaction fee paid in bitcoin's 14-year history.

The sender's wallet was set up just minutes before the transfer, and the recipient received only 55.78 BTC of the original 139.42 BTC that was sent.
In September, F2Pool returned a 19.8 BTC fee that was mistakenly sent by Paxos. AntPool, a mining pool owned by Bitmain, has not published an announcement in relation to the apparent overpaid fee.

FRANKFURT (Reuters) - No one is a prophet in their own land, including European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde, who admitted on Friday that her son lost "almost all" of his investments in crypto assets, despite copious warnings.

Lagarde has long railed against cryptocurrencies, calling them speculative, worthless and a tool often used by criminals for illicit activity.

"He ignored me royally, which is his privilege," Lagarde told a town hall with students in Frankfurt. "And he lost almost all the money that he had invested."

"It wasn't a lot but he lost it all, he lost about 60% of it," Lagarde added. "So when I then had another talk with him about it, he reluctantly accepted that I was right."

The ECB chief has two sons in their mid-30s but did not say which one she was referring to.

Bitcoin (BTC) just punched through $38,000 to hit new highs for the year, with a near-term retest of $40,000 looking increasingly likely.

The world’s largest cryptocurrency by market capitalisation was last trading around $37,800 and with gains of around 1.5% on the day.

Despite the absence of most US market participants given the Thanksgiving holiday weekend, trading volumes are still elevated at over $21.5 billion so far for the session, above Monday’s $20.8 billion and Thursday’s $14.2 billion, as per Yahoo data.

Crypto Platform Strike and Checkout.com Partner to Bring Bitcoin Buying to 65+ Countries

Bitcoin (BTC) wallet and payment platform Strike has partnered with Checkout.com to enable debit-card-based Bitcoin purchases in over 65 countries.

Strike leverages Bitcoin’s lightning network to let users make instant and free cross-border fiat currency payments to anyone worldwide. It also functions as a Bitcoin onramp, letting users buy and sell the currency.

Checkout.com is a global payment service provider for businesses that supports all major card schemes.

The collaboration addresses one of the core issues plaguing major crypto providers today: swapping funds between digital and fiat currencies – the latter of which requires access to traditional U.S. banking rails.

Speaking to Fortune, Strike CEO Jack Mallers said that Checkout.com provides a card network gateway, brokering relationships with the likes of Visa and Mastercard. Checkout.com itself does not convert users’ dollars into Bitcoin, but opens one more pathway for interested investors to buy the digital currency.

Strike will become the “Bitcoin company of the earth,” using global payments as a core feature, according to Mallers.

Strike’s Bitcoin Payment Features
Right now, Strike Global users in over 36 countries can buy Bitcoin with a debit card, with rollouts to over 65 countries on the way. Some currently compatible nations include El Salvador, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, and the UAE.

“We’ve also repurposed our Send Globally technology for our users outside of the US,” added Mallers over X. Since last year, Send Globally has allowed U.S.-based Strike users to send money to people in other nations, such as Kenya, with funds automatically converted to the recipient’s local currency in their bank or mobile money account.

“Global users can now cash out their #bitcoin & USDT to local currency, send money across borders, or use Strike to shop in their local markets,” Mallers continued.

The crypto exchange giant Binance is hoping to corner the Japanese market by expanding its crypto pairing offerings by 13.

The firm launched in Japan in August this year, following its acquisition of the Sakura Exchange BitCoin trading platform in November 2022.

Binance Japan has since begun migrating Sakura users to its platform.

Binance recently announced that it will no longer accept Japanese residents on its global site from December.

In a Binance Japan press release, the firm said that its goal was to list “100 tokens” on its platform.

This goal is not unambitious considering Japan’s notoriously strict token listings policy.
