How A Man Made Billions By Chance Through Bitcoin by Hustlersguide(op):
True story…

I know a guy who was on uni holidays in December 2009. He had a bit of money in his bank account. A few grand perhaps. He was always frugal. Didn't like throwing stuff away.

He had a phone call from a friend who was $2,000 short on some bills that's overdue and asked for a loan.

Here's a possible conversation...

"Hey, I can't pay you back but I've got 15,000 bitcoins. Want to swap!"

"What the hell is Bitcoin?" he asked. "How much is it worth?"

"Well it doesn't actually have a point of value as yet, but trust me, you'll make your $2,000 back in a few years."

"Whatever!" he finally said, giving his mate the money in exchange for a piece of paper with some nonsensical codes on it.

"Don't lose it!" his mate said and with that, he was gone.

The guy just puts the piece of paper in a safe. Forgot about it for years. The keys to 15,000 bitcoin just sitting idle, collecting dust. Until 2013, when he realised the sheer luck of a random transaction has made him a millionaire.

But he didn't sell. Won't do. He was patient. He got a decent job. And his hobbies kept him busy.

A few weeks ago we were chatting...

Hi Jim,

Over the last 10 years I’ve became accustomed to this industry and I used that ‘luck’ to help others…

Let's chat some time.

Cheers and love the Whitlams reference wink

Just a regular dude who's sitting on tens of thousands of Bitcoins.

No doubt Australians will be hearing about him soon. He will be the first Australian bitcoin billionaire, with barely a digital footprint. Which is how he wants to be - like Bitcoin itself - pseudonymous.

Watching. Waiting. Contemplating us mortals from a different planet.

Planning to make his dent in the universe.

I feel sad for the guy who sold him the bitcoin for $2,000, since it is currently valued at AUD$150,000,000.

this is the result you get when you are afraid of taking risk. If you don't want to lose you will still be where you are now I guess you are still where you are because you missed a vital information back then.

I bought bitcoin when it was pretty unattractive some years back,but some bad guys duped me and still I have some balance in my acct that I think is also growing.

But now,I am not going to touch it for at least 10years time because I am sure that will make me a lot of cash.
