So about 2 years ago I bought some bitcoins. 200 coins. I had some spare cash I raised from selling ARM shares. Forgot I had the coins in a wallet on my old laptop. Just booted the laptop up, saw the wallet, thought Id' log on and see if bitcoins was still around.... my coins are now worth £25000 LOL
Surely there are others in my boat? And think of all the other people who have still forgotten about their coins?!
Happy days, new car ordered.

Because I have a new car for about £50? And also my name isn't greyhawk and I don't live on a forum with over 3000 posts? Both of these things make me rich.

You should see my other forums accounts. 3000 posts is peanuts.

That's a nice find.
I wonder how many coins are lost for good out there.

Congrats and all, but are you sure broadcasting the idea you've got money is a good idea? I mean, yeah, it's spent on a car, but someone could still get into it if they really wanted. Just a word of caution. Also, due to a lack of foresight, I should have chosen Pessimist as my username. Better safe than sorry especially when it comes too money.

Well done, wish I'd bought mine a long time ago, just like about everyone else who joined this crazy train recently.

Just a correction, so its time to buy very cheap now, only one thing i hate and its mtgox lag - they should invest in better ddos protection |

Don't tell me you spent all £25k on a car?
It's a good thing you cashed out when you did, but the way things are going today you could've spent that cash to quadruple it in a short amount of time, once this fall settles.
Ps folks, it's going below $100 now

it seems that the buy/sell functions of mtgox is frozen; either the servers are swamped with requests from a suspected DDOS attack or just mtgox trying to freeze users from selling. My theory is that this is a repeated tactics/ploy for hackers to bring the BTC value down so that they can buy at a much cheaper rate.
