The AntPool mining pool, which received a record transaction fee of $3.1 million, has said it is prepared to reimburse it.
Pool representatives said that, after receiving the funds, they were temporarily frozen.
The sender was asked to get in touch by December 10 and verify their identity by signing with Electrum or Bitcoin Core.
Separately, CKPool administrator noted that on November 30 AntPool mined an empty block with no transactions.
Meanwhile, Antpool mines another header-only block with no transactions only a short while ago. https://t.co/Qq3TuhiN2v
