Bithumb mistakenly distributed 620,000 BTC, valued at approximately 60 trillion KRW, during a promotional error, and has so far recovered 125 BTC. Instead of pursuing legal action, Bithumb is choosing to communicate directly with users to regain the remaining funds, some of which have already been used to purchase altcoins on their platform. Such incidents highlight the ongoing challenges within the crypto sector, where exchanges are under pressure to review internal controls and adapt to evolving regulatory expectations.
