Code:
"Get out your tiny violins. Martin Shkreli, the man America loves to hate, appears to have lost $15 million in bitcoins after he tried to buy the rights to Kanye West’s new album.
The now-ex-CEO of Turing Pharmaceuticals, who hiked the price of HIV medication by 5,000 percent, was trying to buy Kanye West’s album from his record label so he could sell it on to his fans."

Thoughts? This is funny AS FUCK! Check his Twitter. One Tweet:

"Martin Shkreli ‏@MartinShkreli  24h24 hours ago
Also, idiots, I've gotten in touch with Sitoshi (Bitcoin's creator) and he's agreed to help me get my money back. I always win."
