Three friends walk into a restaurant and split a bill of 30 BTC. Easy, right?

Each pays 10 BTC, totaling 30 BTC. But then the waiter realizes the actual bill was only 25 BTC!

He returns 5 BTC in 1-BTC coins. Since he can’t split it evenly, he gives 1 BTC back to each friend (3 BTC total) and keeps 2 BTC as a tip for himself.

Now, let’s break it down:

Each friend ends up paying 9 BTC (10 paid - 1 returned)

Total paid = 3 × 9 = 27 BTC

The waiter kept 2 BTC

But hold on — 27 + 2 = 29 BTC?

What happened to the original 30 BTC? 😱

👉 Here’s the twist: The logic is misleading.

The 2 BTC tip is already part of the 27 BTC — it’s not something to add on top.

Here’s the correct breakdown:

25 BTC (actual bill)

2 BTC (waiter’s tip)

= 27 BTC total spent

3 BTC returned to the friends

= 30 BTC total

🧠 No BTC is missing — just a clever trick of numbers.
