Well, at least you aren’t the guy that bought two pizzas for 10 000 bitcoins. If he’d have held onto them until the $20 000 peak (a tall order in itself) he’d have netted a cool $200 million.

If he could have sold them at that price without moving the market, that is.


Did that guy who binned his hard drive with his bitcoin wallet ever retrieve it from the garbage dump? Last I heard he was planning on digging up the entire dump to find it.


OTOH, the pizza shop owner sure struck lucky, if he kept them


Well, not so bad if they were nice pizzas!
