Only then did he find he had 5190 Ethemes, which was 260,000 U.S. dollars (about NT $ 7 million), which represents a complete increase of over 500 yuan Times ah!
Jordan excitedly told his parents that his elders suggested he could sell 75% of the ether, but he thought the ether had room to appreciate and therefore refused to sell it.

That's a nice story!
I hope stories like this one get more attention from the media. It doesn't seem accurate when bitcoin is portrayed solely as a place for criminals, terrorists and drug dealers to sell their wares.
This story could be evidence wealth isn't always earned through intelligence, hard work or bravery. Sometimes its an accident.
I still think the concept of intrinsic value is somewhat a myth. Air to breath, time, food to eat, shelter, transportation and similar necessities may be deemed as having intrinsic value. Items like gold however do not necessarily have to be categorized under that distinction and their value may be deemed as being subjective if historical. The same might be said of paper money.
The idea of there being a massive divide between bitcoin and other forms of electronic transaction may also be a myth. I don't see anyone criticizing credit cards or wire transfers for lacking "intrinsic value".
