Sell for 5 bucks what today is worth 4 billion bucks: the biggest regret story in crypto history
Think you're unlucky? Listen to the tale of programmer Marty Malmi, the guy who had the keys to the digital paradise but rushed out.
The mind-blowing start
Marty was Satoshi Nakamoto's right-hand man in the early days of Bitcoin back in 2009. Marty mined 55,000 bitcoins (yeah, that number is spot on, when bitcoin was worth nada).
The decision that changed everything
In October 2009, Marty executed the first documented bitcoin sell-off for cash; he sold 5,050 bitcoins for... how much?
Just 5.02 bucks (meaning each bitcoin cost the buyer 0.0009 bucks).
Crazy calculations
If Marty had held onto those 5,000 coins until today, he'd have over 400 million bucks.
And if he had kept all 55,000 coins, his fortune today would exceed 4 billion bucks, making him one of the richest peeps on the planet.
Where did the money go?
Marty used part of his gains later (when the price hit 15 bucks) to buy a small pad in Finland. And even though he lost billions, he says with peace of mind that maybe if he had gotten super rich back then, he would have lost his passion for life.
