"Lost Bitcoin"
In 2011, a young programmer from Kharkiv named Artem became fascinated with a new technology — Bitcoin. He was curious about how "digital money" could exist without a bank. He downloaded the first wallet, mined for a few weeks, and collected 500 bitcoins. At that time, it was worth less than $50.
A year later, he lost interest, deleted the wallet, and sold the computer.
Ten years passed. In 2021, while reading the news, Artem saw a headline:
"Bitcoin reached $60,000".
His heart skipped a beat. He calculated — those 500 bitcoins were now worth 30 million dollars.
He rushed to find his old laptop, contacted the buyer — it was an old IT guy who said he had reformatted the disk long ago.
Artem laughed and cried at the same time. That evening, he started writing a blog about cryptocurrency, naming it:
"Lost Millions — Learned Lessons".
