A Newport man’s quest to recover $742 million in Bitcoin from a landfill has captivated the world for over a decade. Legal battles, high-tech plans, and a lost fortune buried under tons of waste make this a tale like no other. Now, a documentary brings his relentless journey to light.
The real value of the crypto was whatever the day he lost it. They need to stop calling it whatever horseshit number the market has for that same crypto. Because this specific crypto is gone. Forever. It has no value. It can never accrue more value. Stop acting like it’s real. Stop acting like it’s value has been subject to market forces over the years. It’s been gone. The invisible hand can’t touch it if it’s gone.
So if you’re gonna say this chump lost his wallet say what the value was when he lost it. So whatever the price was back then. Guarantee it’s not 3/4 of a billion fucking dollars.
