Block 788200 on Ordinals.com includes a dubious transaction where there were no satoshi present. However, the inscription 3492721 attached to the input got validated, even if there were no satoshi at play in this transaction. This issue affects all Ordinal tools, explorers, and marketplaces out there. The satoshi inscribed was transferred to the miner as a transaction fee, but was inscribed by its previous owner, and this is not how they should be inscribing it, per the protocol. If fixed by making ord ignore this inscription, all the satoshis inscribed after inscription 3492720 will be off by one. A tool was released for increasing the off-by-one error.
