Yes, I typoed 625.


I’m very glad you were wrong. :)

I never calculated the actual potential amount, because I figured it would be depressing, but 9-figures would be beyond depressing.

I’m not sure what I actually paid because I bought it from a friend directly. It was somewhere around 100 BTC. Definitely a cautionary tale about backups and bad luck. But on the other hand, I’ve in whole been the recipient to more than my share of good fortune.
