This is the funniest thread that I have seen so far. It's an entrepreneur trying to sell a wallpaper image he created and wants to sell them for $1 which would be 500 bitcoins back in early 2010 when this forum just began. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=25.msg159I hope this guy managed to get rich off bitcoin even if his idea to sell wallpaper was pathetic lol At least he was in the right place at the right time which is more than I can say for myself.

Wow, according to my math that's a 2 million dollar pizza. I would have loved a small slice of that!

Based on his address he sold 600 btc in 2011. If he wait 2 years it would be a great money.

The risk is really high at that time as btc is still new. Just like when google had their ipo.

On a similar note, back in 2010 before GPU mining and all that I solo mined a block with bitcoin-qt. Only to forget about this new fad and didn't backup the wallet. I either reinstalled or the drive crashed and poof. bye bye wallet.

Well how many people believed that the price would jump from lets say 0.01$ for 1BTC to 200$? If people did, there wont be no trade since everyone would w8 for that moment ( ppl know were sure it would reach that price ) and cash put then, and since there is no trade there is no real value. So be thankful that some poor miners sold 10k for few $.

+1 Everyone says after the fact and would've loved to been an early investor... But would any of you honestly kept your BTC after it went up in value by 50%? 100%? Most of us would've sold it wayyy before it reached the levels it has today! It reminds of the Simpson episode where Homer sells his shares after it went some small % while the rest of the company held on and made a fortune!
