In 2011, a Reddit user named “Bitcoin Billionaire” made a post bragging that he had mined 20,000 Bitcoins using his home computer. At the time, Bitcoin wasn’t worth much, so he thought it was hilarious to hoard that much virtual currency, joking that one day he’d be rich enough to buy a yacht or maybe even a pizza (taking a jab at the famous pizza purchase story).

But instead of being patient, he made an impulsive decision a few months later. Seeing that the value of Bitcoin had increased a bit, he decided to sell his entire stash for…drumroll…a used Honda Civic! Yep, 20,000 BTC for a second-hand car. He was super excited about the sale and felt like he got a great deal.

Fast forward to today, and those 20,000 Bitcoins would be worth over half a billion dollars! Meanwhile, that Honda Civic? It’s probably rusting in a garage somewhere.

Moral of the story: HODL sometimes really does mean holding on for dear life—or in this case, for something better than a used car!
