Title: Bitcoins lost Post by: smoothrunnings on December 18, 2013, 12:35:16 PM After seeing the story about the guy who lost 7 million dollars with of Bitcoins the price was high, and Stacey (at RT News/Max Keiser) recently saying he's lost wallets in the beginning that held 20 bitcoins or so in them, I am wondering how many lost bitcoins there are out there?

That's a lot of coins right there. Title: Re: Bitcoins lost Post by: LiteCoinGuy on December 18, 2013, 02:50:59 PM maybe in the end we have instead of 21 mio BTC only 14 mio. :o
