I was reading one lost Bitcoin today on the coin telegram on the topic of lost Bitcoin and I stopped to wonder what benefits the lost Bitcoin are to every holder, there is no gainsaying how much Bitcoin we have all lost due to one reason or the other some to a wrong address I hard of a guy that lost the private key to a wallet holding about 13,000 Bitcoin and wants to ask should we take such accidents as a donation to Bitcoin holders?
That does not have anything to do with the bitcoin holder, he lost the private key address through accident and it has nothing with investment because both the profit the coin have gathered since the missing of the wallet keys, shows that the person in question doesn't have access to the coin
I think it has a great deal with investment as any Bitcoin lost is equivalent to a reduction of total supply and that will also increase Bitcoin value so I will say the op is correct in this statement. Even Santoshi mentioned that in a post that is quoted in the thread by another user.
