Who actually stole 69?

Do you really think anyone’s gonna confess? Look at ‘em. Everyone’s dead silent, like they got drowned out or somethin’.

I think that either kTimesG or nomachine stole it. By the way, having $750 k still isn’t enough to be financially independent—maybe that was true 15 years ago. Check out @RetiredCoder: he battled a puzzle for a year and hasn’t spent any of his winnings. Is he stingy, already rich, or just waiting for Bitcoin to hit $1 million? Sorry, I got off-topic. I wouldn’t use Electrum anymore. I’ll soon release a script that lets you generate raw transactions really quickly.

You're forgetting the gurus: albert0bsd, WanderingPhilospher, and others. Yes, my bot was running when 69 got sniped, but it had a bug and it never managed to reach the gigantic existing fee before the TX got mined.

Otherwise, I was even in front of the computer when that shit happened, so I witnessed the logs 5 minutes after the block was mined, while tabbing through windows. But since I never imagined that 69 would ever go through the mempool, after tons of existing advices on why it should never be done, I gracefully simply fixed the bug and restarted the service.
