$ETH The saddest story with $ETH happened in 2021, when a resident of the UK, Thomas Clark, lost access to a wallet containing 4000 ETH after the death of his mother. These coins, purchased in 2015 for $1 (about $4,000), would have been worth $14 million by June 2025 (at a rate of $3500). The password was written in a notebook that his mother hid, but after her passing, it was never found. Thomas attempted to hack the wallet but was unsuccessful. In tears, he said, "It was her dream for our future." The story touched the crypto community, serving as a reminder about the importance of keeping backups. The loss became a symbol of missed opportunities.
