An unusual but 'expensive' incident just occurred in the Monad community — and it quickly became the center of discussion on-chain.
A user accidentally 'burned' the entire airdrop reward of MON worth over 112,000 USD, simply due to spamming a series of faulty transactions without checking the status of the initial transaction.
According to on-chain data, wallet 0x7f4 was allocated approximately 112,700 USD MON in the latest airdrop of Monad. However, instead of claiming or processing step by step, the wallet owner sent hundreds of consecutive transactions in a very short time.
The first transaction failed — but the user did not realize it. The result: all subsequent transactions continued to fail in sequence. And with each failed transaction, the gas fee was still fully deducted.
As the number of transactions increased too quickly (likely due to running a script or automated tool), the accumulated gas fees depleted the entire amount of MON that was airdropped, leaving the wallet completely empty.
On-chain data suggests that the user may have left the script running automatically after the first failure, leading to an 'exponential escalation' of fees. Just one wrong action — but the consequences are irreparable.
A painful lesson for all of us:
Always check the first transaction with a small test command, especially when using bots, tools, or scripts. Large airdrops not only present opportunities but also require corresponding caution — otherwise, everything could 'disappear' in just a few minutes.
