Goat sold a 1000 BTC Casascius coin on here a few years back. I'm not sure where the thread went but I recall the trade details were partially disclosed.

Man whatever happened to Goat......he used to be everywhere way back when, I took a break for a few years after my account got hacked, and totally forgot about him. Retired on Yacht I hope.

EDIT: *Gulp* I just ran a search. Turns out he was a massive scammer, and scammed 1000's of BTC off people. Hopefully he had a actual boating accident in said yacht, and sank with it. Fucking hell. All these people needed to do was hodl from back then, and they would all be rich, instead so many of them went of the deep end. I guess early bitcoin adopters always were a weird bunch. But fuck, between him and Risto, two of the most prolific poster here I remember from way back in the day.....sad and shite. Fucking glad Bitcoin has come so far though, whole space is amazing compared to what we dared to dream way back then.

What a story! I like your "moral of the story", which is settle down and just hodl. I agree too that bitcoin just plugs along through all the dirty mixed up shite people try to do around it.

Yeah sad but true....many stories like that. As for btc, it shakes off the weak that do no hodl...only the hodlers survive. Wink
