Blur fixes bug, affected NFT traders to get big bonuses
Blur’s chief executive officer (CEO), Pacman, has released a statement confirming that they had detected a bug at around 8 pm PT. Afterward, they disabled the bid to accept a functionality. In 30 minutes, 36 affected bids were received. The team fixed the issue and bids were enabled 30 minutes later at 11:05 pm PT. Meanwhile, bids above the floor will be canceled automatically before enabling bids are accepted. The affected traders will be refunded twice the difference between their bid price and the proper top bid in ethereum (ETH). For example, if the top bid was 14.5 ETH and the affected bid accepted price was 15.5 ETH, the refund will be 2 ETH. The affected traders will, however, not need to sell their NFTs to get the refund, as Blur will send the amount within 24 hours. The announcement’s response was mostly positive, with most enthusiasts calling it a “classy move” and professional. However, others were concerned about the security of funds on their platform. Blur offered traders a 50% refund after a user lost 70 ETH due to an issue with the user interface.
