A user may spend nearly $90,000 gas fee for 0.87 ETH transfer due to misoperation

According to Etherscan data quoted by anonymous user DeFiac on X yesterday, a user may have mistakenly spent 34.26 ETH (worth $89,200 at current prices) to transfer 0.87 ETH (worth only $2,262). As of press time, gas fees on the Ethereum network are hovering at annual lows between 2 and 4 gigwei, which means that ETH transfers only cost a maximum of $5, meaning that the user paid more than 1,783,900% more.
