I meet loads of people who have collected coins everywhere. They have 20 different types of wallets with a little bit of value. It's due to happen that people will loose their private keys or forget that they even have an account. Over time that value could accumulate pretty big. What will happen to these 'lost' coins? Will these stay on the Blockchain forever, accessible to no one anymore?
Losing your savings in bitcoins is easy enough, even without an attempt on them by scammers and hackers. The crypto owners themselves cope with this task. First of all, this is due to the fact that they do not know a reliable way to protect their wallets.
