The Anonymous Mr. Smith
No one knows who Mr. Smith is, but his tale is legendary. Mr. Smith invested $3,000 while working in Silicon Valley in 2010. That means he had almost 20,000 bitcoins back then when the price of bitcoin was just US 15 cents.3 years later, with the price rising by 10% or more every day, he sold 2,000 coins when the price hit $350. When the price hit $800 a few days later, he sold another 2,000 coins. He’d already netted $2.3 million. Today, he is a legit major investor and traveler. He’s still anonymous, but those who know him say he is as responsible as anyone for the rise in bitcoin price.
