💸240 BILLION DOLLARS DISAPPEARED: THE TRAGIC FATE OF MILLIONS OF BITCOINS
Bitcoin is everywhere – in the news, in investment wallets, and on the lips of every investor. But there is a little-known truth: Millions of BTC have vanished forever, unrecoverable – simply because, in the past, no one cared about it.
🗑 An estimated 3.7 million BTC – equivalent to 240 billion dollars today – have disappeared without a trace. Why? ⏺ Forgotten wallets: When Bitcoin was worth just a few cents, people mined it and left the hard drives abandoned as worthless items. ⏺ Lost passwords: A man once locked away 200 million dollars – with only 2 more attempts left, the wallet will self-destruct forever. ⏺ Accidentally discarded assets: In 2013, James Howells accidentally threw away a hard drive containing 8,000 BTC – and since then, he has been digging through the landfill to retrieve it.
🔔 A hard-learned lesson: The biggest risk is not price volatility – but losing access to your own assets. Keep your money safe, don’t “forget” like millions of BTC have before!
