I just realized that my 50 BTC donation to the forum is now worth $2.9 million. Wow! Never in my life have I expected it to be that big.

This is the most obvious 'bitcoin pizza' moment for me. What's your bitcoin pizza moment? Anything crazy you want to share?

Here's to another 10 years of HODL'ing

Do you know people from the beginning like you, who just HODLed Bitcoin and have never sold a single coin since the moment they started accumulating it? Where are they today? What are their plans for their wealth?

If he got that much and donated 50 BTC, he could have more still today. Like him, he hodled as well like the rest of us who got a ton of eth while it was just $3.

My pizza moment was when put a sell order of more than 600+ Waves on cryptopia. Now can only laugh histerically with only 30+ waves.

You guys are assuming the account is in the possession of the original owner, and I see no reason to do this. Even if it was the original owner, they're kind of glossing over how they came to possess that kind of BTC in the first place.

In a phone interview with Australia’s AM radio show Tradefortress responded to challenges that the theft was ‘an inside job’, though he insisted that he wouldn’t be reporting the theft to the police because the bitcoins are untraceable and it would be impossible to track the culprit.

...

Tradefortresses’ public identity still remains unknown, however his reputation on Bitcointalk seems to be questionable, with at least two members claiming to have been scammed by him for failing to deliver on coding projects he had already been paid for. He has said that he wishes to retain his anonymity as he now fears for his safety in light of this recent heist.

At best this is some stab to regain reputation.
