funniest story or crazy story is about hungry developer who bought two pizzas with 10,000 coins (back then it was little known digital currency) now you guess right it was 10,000 bitcoins. all this happened in 2010. those 10,000 coins were worth 40$ at that time. You can just imagine his feelings and thoughts when he saw 19,800$ value by the end of 2017.
Dont worry for Laszlo Hanyecz,he was one of the first miners and he sold and hodls a lot more than 10000 btc. And he does understand that his first purchase is a part of history now and the value of his current stash is higher thanks to him.Maybe if he didnt made that first purchase who knows what would history look like.....
Okay...so I have a funny Bitcoin story for you which I heard from a friend.
A middle-aged couple bought 1 BTC for a 1000 USD recently. They were happy beyond what can be described in words at the good deal they had got. So they got in touch with my friend to ask him about how they could sell it. He sent them the links to various medium articles and blogposts on how to buy and sell bitcoin. The couple got in touch with him again and told him that they had failed to sell the bitcoin. So my friend went and met them. They then "showed" him their bitcoin. It was a plastic coin with the Bitcoin symbol on it!
Ouch, so they really paid thousand bucks for a plastic bitcoin sign?
