Lan, a girl who loves technology, was once gifted 0.5 Bitcoin by her best friend in 2013 when its price was only about 1 million VND each. At that time, Lan didn’t pay much attention because she saw it as just an interesting technology experiment. She created a Bitcoin wallet, stored it on her personal computer, and quickly forgot about it.
Many years later, in 2021, when Bitcoin became the center of every conversation and its price soared to 1.5 billion VND each, Lan suddenly remembered the old wallet. Excited, she rummaged through the computer she had stored away. After hours of searching, Lan was lucky to find the wallet and successfully recover it.
The small amount of Bitcoin from back then is now worth hundreds of millions of VND. Lan decided to keep a portion for long-term investment and use the rest to establish a scholarship fund for technology students, aiming to spread the spirit of exploration that Bitcoin had brought to her.
Through the story, Lan realized that small opportunities in the present can sometimes become valuable assets in the future if we know how to preserve them and look beyond immediate benefits.
