Letās rewind to 2010: Grandpa Joe, ahead of his time, hands Kevin a USB with 1,000 Bitcoin as his inheritance. Kevin, a skeptical teenager, tosses it into a drawer, dismissing Bitcoin as āboomer nonsense.ā
Fast forward to 2024āBitcoin hits $90,000, and Kevin finally realizes the fortune heās sitting on. In a frenzy, he digs out the USB, heart pounding as the wallet file pops up. Just as heās about to unlock itā¦
š³ The USB smells like burnt plastic.
Then it dawns on him: Three years ago, he used it to fix a wobbly table legāand accidentally snapped it in half.
Kevinās reaction? Collapse. Floor. Ceiling. Silence.
Grandpa Joe still wonders why Kevin skips family dinners these days.
š„ Lesson Learned? Bitcoin is pricelessātreat it like gold, not furniture parts!
