An anonymous British man has recovered dozens of Bitcoin worth approximately £3.3 million, 12 years after the failure of an early crypto exchange left him unable to reach the funds.
The investor, identified only as Chris, recovered the assets after lawyers assembled evidence showing that the Bitcoin held through Intersango belonged to him, according to an exclusive report from LBC.
His case offers a rare happy ending in a sector that is so often littered with inaccessible fortunes.
