In mere minutes, the tweet had attracted a plethora of comments from bewildered Twitter users before they figured out that the above-mentioned sum actually surpasses the market cap of USDT that stands at $4 bln.
Obviously, the transaction was marked as invalid since the sender had an insufficient amount of funds.

:information_source: This transaction is invalid. There are some issues at the moment with validation checks with OMNI, which is why this transaction got through. We are looking for a workaround.
