Bitcointalk.org user loses $2,000,000 in Bitcoin

This is very possible although I have not heard this news personally and I am just reading it now but if the person was a gambler then this becomes even more likely because with gambling you can lose a lot of money in very little time and not much effort. If it is losses from bitcoin prices going down then I don't think he has lost yet, unless he panics and sells which means he lost.

Maybe he do gambling, but for me it's a huge amount that a person cannot afford to lose.

When will bitcoin increase?

all this Bitcoin "loses" and "hacking" it just the way to avoid taxes

One reason why they lose that much probably because they bought bitcoin at a much higher value compared to now. Another this is that many holders said they loss profit even though they bought bitcoin at 1k$ because their portfolios value have drop. Anyway we cannot really believe what we read since there are people ho said who lost profit even if they havent.

I think the actual cost is much higher. Right now, FUDs are prolonged and the market is constantly carrying at the loss for everyone. If the bitcoin continues down to 5k, I think all of the other coin really collapses and is hard to recover without really trying. Consumer confidence will decline significantly.

I'm sure that in 20 years there will either be very large transaction volume or no volume -- Satoshi Nakamoto

When he built this entire infrastructure he never had any idea on how this will have an impact in a short span of time and so is the reason he left early giving away everything to Gavin and others and if he knew it will have an immediate impact i am sure he would have stayed and carried on with the development and be the face of the entire market.

@OP you have not given any details about the loss and how the user lost that much amount of money?

[bitcoinVPSD]

This is probably an unlucky thing for him. But I do not understand why he lost that amount by bitcoin. I was very curious about why he lost a lot of money with bitcoin. he  have been cheated or invested in a bad market moment, you can provide more information on this.

[greenpath]

Big amount of money. It is not easy to earn that kind of huge money. Probably that man now is on the process to moving on. Maybe he should be in great distress at this moment if he did not yet earn the 1 million dollars.

I really agree with what you say, the current condition is indeed bad again all altcoin on down, if we already buy at a high price his solution can only be hold while waiting for the market to return to normal

[bangkecol]

wow, it seems that for this one case I have not found it, what and why it can be lost in bitcointalk, it's better if you have the source, put the source of the info out of it, so as not to become ambiguous news

[Kola]

is it real news? or not? less bitcoing on the earth, more value for the price, imagine in the long future, like 20% of them will lost forever, and not possible to recover them.

[vnck25]

Do you have a link to prove your point? Anyways I think its possible,  but you need to give us more information about how he lost it. Basically, did he lose it by misplacing the password, private key or the wallet file? Or were the  Bitcoins stolen from his wallet, or did he make a very bad move when trading Bitcons?
Anyways as I said before you should share more information on this account, so others can read and learn from this particular persons' mistakes. Cryptocurrencies are very new and there's a lot to learn about them.
