THE MAN WHO EARNED THE NICKNAME "JESUS" FOR GIVING AWAY 1,000 BITCOINS TO STRANGERS ON THE INTERNET AS IF THEY WERE CANDIES.
Roger Ver was one of the first Bitcoin millionaires. His enthusiasm was so great that people nicknamed him "#Bitcoin Jesus".
During the Christmas of 2011 and 2012, Roger felt that the best gift he could give to the world was not a video game console, but financial freedom.
He did something unprecedented: he started giving away Bitcoins en masse.
On radio shows, in forums, and to high school students, Roger handed out thousands of coins. On one famous occasion, he gave away 1,000 Bitcoins to a group of strangers just for them to try the technology.
Those 1,000 $BTC he carelessly gave away would today be worth almost 100 million dollars.
Many of those who received that "Christmas gift" sold it for a few dollars to buy pizza or beer, not knowing they held in their hands the opportunity to retire for life. Roger remains a controversial figure today, but no one can deny that he was the richest Santa Claus in history.
If a stranger were to give you an unknown cryptocurrency today, would you hold it for 10 years or sell it for Christmas dinner?
