🚀 15 Years of Bitcoin HODL!

Exactly 15 years ago, early Bitcoin visionaries realized they could become wealthy by stacking just 100 BTC. Back then, it cost only $6 — today, it’s worth nearly $12 million. 🙀

💸 Estonian banker loses $1B in ETH!

Rein Lōhmus, co-founder of LHV Bank, bought 250,000 ETH for $75K during the 2015 ICO at $0.30 each. Today, that stash is worth over $1.16B — but there’s a catch: he lost the private key. 🔎🗝

Since the ICO, the wallet has never been touched, and Lōhmus admits he has no way to recover access. Back then, hardware wallets were rare, and secure storage wasn’t top of mind. 👀
