Did you know that the Bitcoin network has experienced the largest transfer of 184467000000 bitcoins in a single transaction?


This time, Bitcoin suffered a serious incident: an “integer overflow” vulnerability. Hackers used it to create 1844.67 billion bitcoins in one transaction.
Satoshi Nakamoto and the development team at the time detected the abnormal activity and promptly fixed it with version 0.3.10, coordinating with miners to perform a hard fork.
They abandoned the old chain that contained the overflow transaction and continued mining using the repaired new chain—right up to today.
