In 2011, a man who went by the name “Mr. Bitcoin” on a Bitcoin forum posted that he had accidentally lost 20,000 BTC. He claimed he’d kept them on an old computer, which he later sold without transferring his Bitcoin. Thinking they were lost forever, he made peace with it… until Bitcoin’s value skyrocketed.

Years later, desperate to find the lost fortune, Mr. Bitcoin posted on the forum, begging the new owner of his old computer to check if the hard drive still had his Bitcoin wallet. Despite the long shot, he hoped the buyer would turn up, but no one did. Now, those 20,000 BTC are a part of the vast amount of “lost” Bitcoin floating around in cyberspace—out of reach but never truly forgotten.
