This just goes to show how HODLing too long can cause complacency.  You have to remain active in that which you believe in and even take the necessary precautions to ensure you don't lose what could amount to millions.
It is not about complacency, these things was a common factor in the beginning where people loosing their coins because people were not taking it seriously and usually they forget the private keys or the wallet itself because the system broke down and so on, i know a lot of people that lost their coins and i lost some coins and i do not even know my wallet address as i could not recover anything till now because my laptop HDD crashed and could not recover most of the files.

This guy has lost 103 bitcoins he mined back in 2011 and then lost his wallet dat file similar to what I have done but wow this guy must be gutted the amount of money he has lost compared to me  

His Address    166BuLPWHUjqoqiYp5rGE3B5r5AmqgHpoL    Final Balance   103.20832384 BTC

So many people have the same problem and I wonder just how much Bitcoin is stuck not being able to be used Sad

He says "I used to mine Bitcoin back in 2011 and I lost my wallet.dat file (through several stupid moves on my part). It's got approx 103 BTC in it, anyone is welcome to it, I've given up trying."






Losing all that money will be depressing. And if that happens to me, I will not know what will I do. All we can do now is not to be careless. We need to be serious on this job and make this career as a passion. I hope that the guy is okay now. It will be nearly to impossible to forget the past but bitcoin is still waiting for you now to change your future. Every day, we have a chance to do it so grab the opportunity and invest.

loosing bitcoin is actually normal and it also happend to me .  I think almost all of us who uses bitcoin  do also experienced it because we are only humans and we arent perfect , we sometimes do mistake especially when we are still a newbie or beginner in the crypto scene but of course loosing does always happen not only in crypto but also in real life events. we may loose money , loose in a game , loose in a lovelife , loose a life , etc. But overall , it is all part of the game and this issue isnt something to be worried about at all.

The best thing we can do is to learn from our mistakes and start improving it.

surely many people who have experienced such an event, and of course we really do not want it to happen to us but want how else
such events come to anyone and without any notice of course so with the incident we are required to be more vigilant and careful in doing something

I feel bad too, but the thing is in that year bitcoin is very cheap, we cannot say that what will be the possible future for bitcoin in that year, so it is not anybodies fault. I feel bad that this year that kibd of bitcoin is worth very expensive and it can make you rich but I think there is something good for you, just wait.

I know a guy that exchanged a few years ago 700 btc for 3$ a pop. Imagine how he feels.
I don't know about him, but I myself would kick my own balls.

I think this is not the biggest loss of bitcoins. Unfortunately, such cases were very popular. That's more in the past.

Interesting, losing such a huge amount of money can be suicidal. Wondering why he did have backup knowing the amount he had in his wallet. Anyway, it is gone and he has to move on. As long as there's life, there is still some hope of making it. This time around, take extra precautions and have backups.

we can learn from these experiences, we can safer store our coin assets. because however now theft can be done in many ways and we must anticipate it so that our coin assets including bitcoin is always safe.

It's a shame, I just checked;

103.20832384 BTC 166 bulpwhujqoqiyp5rge3b5r5amqghpol final balance

It may not be much in 2011, but it's a lot of money right now.

So we have to protect our passwords when we store bitcoin.

if I were that person I would be very sad. Because 103 bitcoin now is much money. We can buy anything.
but i think it will be a warning for me to be more careful again and not carelessly.

There is no way to retrieve it unless if he could remenber where he put the files to recover and open it. Many have experienced problems like these and the only thing that could help prevent this is to make more back up of private keys on the computer zipped with passwords.

It is sad, but god for him for giving up after trying all he can because actually nothing he could do to get his bitcoin back.
But it is also not to bad for him for he just loss his mined bitcoin which he got for free those time
And many people struggling to have same mistake even until now
