I'm a bit worried about Mechs, he disappeared after that - right?
Hope he didn't blew away all his BTC before this rally. The guy was a long-time investor, very conscious about his investment and always trying to give his opinion about what were the best moves for investors, and suddenly he went berserk and gambled it all, losing it... Not a funny situation if you ask me, unless he is in the Forbes list losing $2M is so crazy you can't even conceive it, i would remember it all my life when I look at my kids.
It seems that way, no one has seen him on JD and his forum account has not be active since October 2nd (bet was on the 4th). Pretty sad situation really, I hope the guy is ok.
Just check his post history, in June this year he was writing he was new to BTC and he just recently invested in the currency, so he probably is not one of those legendary "mega early adopters" who mined thousands of coins with their CPU's... I'm not saying that losing millions of $ is less retarded if you didn't work hard to earn them, but probably Mechs spent a lot of $$$$ to buy those BTC. Gambling them away is simply crazy.
