Forgive my petulance and oft-times, I fear, ill-founded criticisms, and forgive me that I have, by this time, made your eyes and head ache with my long letter. But I cannot forgo hastily the pleasure and pride of thus conversing with you.

First I thought that was another troll , then I saw the topic is from 2012, then that SR1 and maybe the Dread Pirate Robert himself posted here,
This topic belongs to the story of BTC

I too wonder first and think it as latest thread. Imagine the value of 4000+ BTC's present value - After checking the date of the OP Post I realize the matter and my heart beat go down - (OP himself cleared his balance in 2012 itself)

i would consider DPR of SR1 to be a pretty early adopter (2011). Although it is fairly unlikely that he will be using Bitcoin very much moving forward unfortunately.

I was thinking more in terms of someone who mined them i suppose. I was speculating they were not gotten in the most legal of ways and thus not my stereotypical early adopter.

My God. Who would have thought that bitcoin will be worth so much... I always have bittersweet feelings when I read some old and necroed topics like this. Maybe in the 2020 we will cross $10.000 for 1 bitcoin too?

Well interestingly, there were entries on Ross's accounting spreadsheet for the purchase of a bunch of FGPCAs for several thousand dollars. I am not sure that was actually what the money was used for or if it was for something he did not want written down. Although I do see your point.

Yeah back then Bitcoin wasn't as expensive then or had as big a value. Back in 2012 to 2013 prices where all over the place. I got into bitcoin back in 2011 even tho I knew of it back in 2009 passed up as worthless wish I would of gone with my other thoughts and looked more into it and got into back then then fully getting into it in 2011 but made a small fortune since then so guess never to late to get into Bitcoin but if would of took it on then could of been set for life. Small rewards then now worth a good amount would be nice if price tumbles down to price what where then would give so many people wanting to get into it another chance.

Thats just crazy.. and that person now is pretty much a happy camper.. for saying to do a simple "rescan".

If you check the first page of the thread you'll see that he was able to restore access to his wallet. I'm more curious as to how many Bitcoins he kept to this day.

Amazing - as someone late to the bitcoin party it's so interesting to go back and see posts from that time. It must have been such a great time to be in the community
