Saw another one today, posting directly above the ₿itcoin account:
free-bit.co.in - registered June 2014
The original owner of this account was
Croatian, but hasn't posted on that board since 2021. They never used to post in the Gambling section, yet that's where they mainly post these days. This coincides with a 3-year posting gap between 2022 - 2025.
The account was made for advertising a Bitcoin faucet with the same name as the account. The chances this account still belongs to the original owner are quite slim, but if they want to prove me wrong, they are more than welcome.
Then I couldn't ignore this:
oh my god you know thats so damn funny because I did this same exact thing with my first 50btc block i mined i stored it on my old ipod like oh this is so cool im physically holding bitcoins i'll never lose this thing and its an ipod so its good forever! Now looking at my 19 year old self my 35 year old self is thinking god damn how much of a unorganized dumbass was I ? Apparently quite a bit. If you are really serious about this I would say try contacting a company if you really have it if you don't then bes tof luck on your ventures either way that is really funny you did the same thing I did way back then.
This guy is so completely full of shit. He claims to have mined 50 BTC in 2009, which isn't bad enough -- he is saying he did the same thing
a scammer is saying and stored it on his mp3 player. He went from one of the earliest Bitcoin adopters to utter shitposter? I have extreme doubts about this.
