The Accidental Bitcoin Millionaire
In 2013, a Norwegian man, Christopher Koch, forgot about 5,000 Bitcoins he'd bought for $27 as a curiosity. Years passed, and he'd lost his private keys.
Fast-forward to 2019: Koch discovered his old laptop while cleaning. After hours of frustration, he recovered his keys. To his astonishment, his 5,000 BTC were now worth around $1 million!
Koch's reaction? "I thought I'd been hacked... then I checked the price!"
