The amount of cryptocurrency bought by Williamson on Coinbase was sometimes worth more than $1.3 trillion. His account is being “frozen” to decide if this is a bug.

Christopher Williamson, a pupil in the Georgia School of Nursing, fell $20 to purchase the Rocket Bunny cryptocurrency on Coinbase earlier this week. After one night, he woke up to find his pocket worth more than 1.3 trillion USD.

“I wake up at 9am and enjoy a custom, catch my phone to find out how the coin cost is. When I saw that the amount I could not believe my eyes, and I thought I was dreaming,” Williamson told Fox 5 Atlanta.

When Williamson attempted transferring Rocket Bunny coins into another wallet, the balance revealed not that much. Therefore, he contacted Coinbase. This exchange said it is investigating the problem, and has contacted the programmer Rocket Bunny but hasn’t received a response.

Williamson’s account was temporarily frozen. With over 1.3 trillion USD in the accounts, he’ll be the richest person on earth, with total assets equal to major technology companies.

After looking at the amount, Williamson understood the 13-figure fortune was likely because of technical error. However, he posted the picture Twitter for pleasure. The nursing student even messaged Elon Musk on Twitter to ask what to do with his new fortune.

Coinbase's email response to Williamson has not yet concluded that this is an error. Test appointment support team and "find the best solution". — Coinbase’s email response to Williamson hasn’t yet concluded that this is a mistake. The support staff makes an appointment to inspect and “find the best solution”.

“Elon Musk is always teasing people but I hope he knows about this coin,” Williamson said.

Williamson believes the money in his accounts will soon return to normal. However, the pocket equilibrium continued to increase. His buddy also purchased Rocket Bunny coin however no issue. On an internet forum, many different users reported that they had exactly the identical error.

Sharing with Newsweek, Williamson stated if he actually needed that money, he would use it to look after his loved ones, pay for her home and perhaps build free medical centers.

“I can’t spend this huge amount of money, so I’ll use it wisely,” Williamson added. He also said he could invite all Coinbase workers on a superyacht if he could withdraw the $1.3 trillion.

Currently, Coinbase hasn’t made any conclusive information concerning the incident.
