Somewhere a floppy disk contains enough money in btc to retire.

I need to vent…

When bitcoin was brand new I was your average left wing teenager that wanted nothing more than to kick the banking system down to the ground. Suddenly I read this article about how Bitcoin was the answer to that so I immediately started to mine.

Some time after that we had to sell our pc but before that I made sure to make a backup of my wallet and the only thing I had at the time was a shitty usb used for school and a 3.5” floppy disk, i chose to floppy disk.

Since btc was more useless than I was at the time I didn’t pay it any mind for many years and during that time I moved many times, including changing cities several times.

And guess what… that floppy disk is gone. I know for sure that I haven’t consciously thrown it away and my mother swears she never saw it when she moved away from my childhood home.

For all the flaws I have it’s incredibly rare that I misplace stuff, the amount of items I’ve lost these last 20 years can probably be counted on my two hands. Of course one of those things had to contain an unknown amount of bitcoins. Most certainly quite a lot of complete bitcoins.

That’s all. Venting is over. Now I need to get back to my low paying job that I will be stuck in until I’m closer to death than anything else.
