Hello,

If anyone has seen my recent thread, I've been previously trying to recover a friend's account on Coinbase, in which he had a tiny bit of money a few years ago. After recovering the account, the total balance was approximately €200 worth of Bitcoin, which had been bought/sent, doesn't matter, in 2017, for €2, that's approximately a 9900% increase! These are the times we wish we had spent €10 or €20, and now we would have a semi-decent amount of money, not to mention what the results would be with larger amounts of money >€200.

Does anyone have similar experiences?

I recently had a fun time checking a wallet and it was very similar to yours. I first learned about Bitcoin during the Corona pandemic and I opened my first trust wallet and wrote the password in a diary. At that time, I bought only $10 worth of Bitcoin and after a few days I couldn't find the diary and forgot the password. Later, I thought I had lost only $10 and put it out of my mind. But recently, when we moved house, I found the diary and found the seeds of that many years old wallet and opened the old wallet from 4-5 years ago with the password and was very happy because at that time I was seeing $108 in the wallet instead of $10, although the amount was not much, I was still very happy, it felt like I had found Aladdin's lamp.  It's actually a very surprising thing to find something I lost, and even more so if it comes back tenfold. I thought, "Oh, if I had put $1,000 or $5,000 instead of $10 at that time, that amount would have become a huge asset today, with which I could have started a new business."
