The \"see me after class\" message suggests it was a teaching exercise. Of course, \"expensive\" is relative - if someone had substantial BSV holdings, this fee might be trivial to them.  \r\n\r\nTransaction ID\r\n\r\n6a0d4e3e859ae693f49777fff82a9bb7286c1649dd2c3bc01cd163d6a3018676",

  "map_content": "It\u2019s a blast to explore, I agree! It\u2019s the beauty of a public blockchain. Sleuthing benefits all when shared. \r\nRe: those addresses.. Depending on skill level you could find out for yourself by going to the transaction and looking at the 5 inputs that represent the 3 unique addresses on What\u2019s On Chain and click on each one. \r\nThey each have a zero balance now. And show what prior transactions contributed to activity on it (all within the past year). \r\nSince I have more information now, it looks likely that it was unintended and accidental. The output being 1 Satoshi and the inputs totalling 400 some odd BSV - it\u2019s simple math. The mining fee is calculated by subtracting the outputs from the inputs. Hence, a 400ish BSV miner fee.\r\nFor some of us this kind of investigation is fun because you learn more about how this magnificent system works! \r\nI do hope the miner will give back the fees paid. I\u2019ve heard that sometimes they will. It\u2019s still a very small ecosystem.",
