THIS MAN LOST 259,684 BITCOIN WORTH RP308.84 TRILLION AFTER MT. GOX DELETED HIS TRANSACTION
In 2011, Kevin Day, a Mortal Kombat 4 programmer, reportedly managed to buy 259,684 BTC with just $3,000 when Bitcoin’s price plunged following the Mt. Gox hack.
At the time, Bitcoin’s price fell from $17.50 to $0.01 in just three minutes. Kevin took advantage of the situation by placing a buy order at $0.0101.
However, he didn’t get to enjoy his gains. Mt. Gox restricted withdrawals and then rolled its trading system back to its pre-hack state.
As a result, Kevin’s purchase was erased too.
If he still owned those bitcoins, they could be worth billions of dollars today.
