Well a simply act years ago of anybody buying a pizza with millions of dollar worth of bitcoin today could be easily heard from early adopters, well when it's easy money it easy to lose all of them too consider they aren't hard earned cash

though i only consider it a few coins out of my hoard.. i have experienced similar. but so have many others.

i bought a rig for 60btc back in 2013-4 which didnt make ROI due to a mega difficulty jump just weeks after that, which pretty much literally rendered my rig to become a slow hasher and thus more efficient at heating my apartment than hashing btc.

though back then 60btc was not worth much.. so in reality it was only about $1k

at todays value i could say it was worth a 'loss' of over $1m at christmas 2017 prices.
but everyone moves on and ensures they dont mess around with their main hoard. and if they lose out on their few coins they dont value much at the time.. then thats that.

i think there are many hundreds of early adopters that could say similar stories.. oh well. we all move on. atleast some of us are smart enough to still have a bigger hoard we will not touch and will do everything to protect. including not let devs mess too much with bitcoin code

According to Bitcointalk user math, I think he lost $8,000 of his grandma's money.

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

How he lost it?

You buy 1 Bitcoin for $15,000 and now Bitcoin is $9000, how much money did you lose ?? The price fell.

That's an awful lot, with so much bitcoin available we can buy anything we want, I think the bitcoin owner will regret it for the rest of his life, and do not let that happen again.

I read while reading many threads here that a bitcointalk.org member lost $2,000,000 in Bitcoin. Shocked

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 ?

You never know though, you know how many people in crypto are actually all-in or have more in crypto than they have in real life? I am sure the number is more than you think and it probably is an alarming amount of people. It would suck to have gotten rekted in one move on 2 million, but the world has seen dumber.

my own thoughts
As incomplete information poker gamer addictive ... ok, I will pay the "buy in" competition ticket in and in my maths the maximum I will loose will be not more than my buy in ticket .. but I discovery that a lot of stuf was set up before I buy in my ticket .. for instance ... on that particular table I know player will fail

that's a big mistake because we can do a not big investing here like 0.01 btc only and it can turn to 1 btc when 2014 btc price then go by now even now but not really high because the price of btc go high too.I think better to go in school then back in crypto if you have knowledge already and use little btc only for investing.
