One thing that catches my eyes on X



Big lesson is there

Not your keys, not your coins

Forgot your keys, forget your coins

San Francisco based programmer Stefan Thomas has approx $220 million in BTC locked in IronKey USB drive

One of the most brutal reminders of how early Bitcoin worked.

7,002 BTC paid in 2011 for an educational video.

Password lost in 2012.

Today worth over $220 million.

Eight password attempts gone. Two left.

After that, the IronKey encrypts everything forever.
