Never heard of this. Do you have any link for an article or story on this? How did he lose it, was it because of the price drop, or were the coins stolen due to a hack or something like that? This forum is here from the start, we have posts from Satoshi in this forum, so we definitely have a lot of users here with tons of coins. Quite sad to see anyone losing that amount of cash.

A gambler walks into a casino with $20, parlays it up to $2M, and then loses it all. On his return home, his wife asks "how did your gambling go tonight?". He responds, "lost $20".

Bitcoin can go to $20 after all the gambling.

You mean because of the course? Maybe this is because bitcoin has fallen almost 3 times from its maximum. I also lost more than 2 times.

o lose, it means to sell during a decline in prices, but the fact that a person has more than 100 bitcoins on his account and they lost $ 2 million in the price does not mean that he lost them

Bitcointalk user "wongjack" who has 8000 Bitcoins can lose $30,000,000 if he does not sell/cash out.

This week Bitcoin had gone below $6,000 twice in 24 hours.

In my opinion, the price of Bitcoin lowered again in 2018 is indispensable in the law of increasing - decreasing of the market. The volatility of this market makes many investors lose a lot of money. A BitcoinBike member who lost $ 2,000,000 in Bitcoin was just one of the few losers in the rebate. They know and accept it. Now they can take $ 2 million but at other times they get $ 10 million ... that's the fun part of investing. At the moment they have sold and lost $ 2 million but if they keep retaining and bravely investing more, in a short period their earnings could equal 5 or 7 times that number.

Probably you are referring to the pizza guy , the one who bought 2 pizzas and beer with 10.000 bitcoins as that is the person who has bought 2 pizzas for 86.000.000 dollars taking into consideration the actual price of bitcoin of 8600 dollars. Sure these pizzas are the most expensive ones the world has ever seen and will remain like this for eternity I believe.

These stories are often found on the forum. And in real life to lose such a huge amount of money is very simple. People neglect the safety of their finances. It's sad.

The question,is how did he lost,there is no specific details,why that he lost that kind of big investment of asset,i thinks he is the one blaming of himself,why he lost that kind of big asset,maybe at first investment he become successfull all the things they do,but he could not contented of the profits he gain and he want to triple all of this profits,without knowing thats theres coming price blow off and other problems coming from cryptocurrency.therefore why sometimes being a good listener and researching all the news information about cryptocurrency world will help us also to become a tools of our trading investment,to know when should we sell or hold our investment.

Don't let others control your BTC -> self custody

You're losing money most of the time guys. My friend bought a PC in 1992 for over $1000 and it was a P486. Something that 10 years later you'd be able to find in a dumpster 8 years later. Now you buy a new smartphone for $1000, it falls on the pavement and there goes your $300 for a new screen. If that's the only thing that breaks.
Your car costs you money, your fiat loses value over time, house costs money in taxes and repairs... Such is life.
Bitcoin is one of those rare things that appreciate in value, as long as you don't lose it.

How he lost it?

I doubt it was an "ALL IN" move ... quote Dan Harrington (poker player) "nobody go all in cash games" ... are you Kamikaze ?

That's indeed a suicide move, after losing the initial million dollars, A wise investor would have know to cut down his losses and stop whatever trade that he/she was doing but because he was all about waiting to recoup the losses, he ended up losing it all eventually.

It may be a big deal to invest and that's just a loss, the size of the loser if it's just trading, that's probably why others just got rid of it and that's also a loss, but it's still not too big $ 2,000,000 not Maybe it's just that she's careful about her money or maybe gambling her just because she thought maybe it will grow in gambling and she does not know just the loser of the gamble. He probably had a lot of money before he beat $ 2 million in such a huge amount of money.

This is not limited to bitcointalk.org users alone. It is as a result of the drop in price of Bitcoin. A good number of users will benefit in the long run as the price of Bitcoin is projected to hit a price far higher than where it reversed from.
