THE MAN WHO TAUGHT BITCOIN FOR FREE AND THE COMMUNITY MADE HIM A MILLIONAIRE 🙏💰
What happened to this person is incredible... Andreas Antonopoulos spent years traveling the world giving talks about $BTC , many of them for free, and wrote the book Mastering Bitcoin. He worked for two years without pay, and in 2013 he had to sell his bitcoins to pay the rent.
In December 2017, when the price was sky-high, someone publicly asked him why he wasn’t a millionaire. He answered with complete honesty... and the community responded: more than 1,000 people sent him over 100 bitcoins, worth around $1.5 million at the time. One donor sent him 79 bitcoins.
I think this story says a lot about what this community is really about: it’s not just about making money, but about recognizing those who helped you understand it.
Did you know this story? Who would you thank for teaching you something about crypto?
