Man Sues Council Over Missing Bitcoin Hard Drive | 10 News First

[@marcdegnan903]

What a joke. He threw it out. It's not his property anymore. It will get laughed out of court

[@matthewsaleman58]

LET HIM DIG!!!

[@SilverAudiophile]

A 25% cut of the Billion worth of BTC? Turning this down, now they face being sued for $1 Billion? Gees, why are councils the World over always making silly decisions?

[@greenonionsalad]

Lol you're a fool if you don't understand the guy will be laughed out of court.

[@SilverAudiophile]

@greenonionsalad You're the fool to think it's wise to forego a quarter billion dollar profit cut?

[@greenonionsalad]

​@@SilverAudiophile I didn't comment on that. You made it out to be an ultimatum between getting a quarter bil and getting fined a bil. That's not the case.

[@SilverAudiophile]

@@greenonionsalad Gees, you really are dumb? Let me make it very simple so even you can understand this. Imagine it's you instead of the council. A quarter billion bucks on the table for you, risk absolutely nothing! Or, deny yourself the quarter billion (US$250,000,000) entirely and choose instead to fight a court case at your expense? Gees, mega hard decision!!!!

@@SilverAudiophile If you believe that he might find a specific object, smaller than a cigarette lighter, that was thrown out years before, amongst rubbish that has been covered over by years of accumulation. And that even if he does somehow find it, it will still be a viable storage device, given the metals that make the circuitry will have corroded due to corrosive gasses that form in waste, and spontaneously combust under the surface at any given time. Then I think the fool might be you. Profit cut? Nope, just a big stinky, dangerous mess!

one day this dumping ground would be worth at least $100 Billion

[@mickatlas3272]

His own fault for throwing it out

[@thecaptain3068]

His ex girlfriend threw it out.

[@petertaylor4758]

​@@thecaptain3068 yes she would definitely be ex by now

[@thecaptain3068]

why you'd store your seed phrase on a HDD I'll never know

[@ura9390]

this was back in the day before the secure hardware wallet we have today, plus it wasnt worth a billion back then lol, give the guy a break

[@tocamak2200]

Delusional.

[@gazzaeabc3805]

We need to stop sueing Government, and sue the individuals making the decisions personally.

[@WeeJasperVetClinic]

Bitcoin or bincoin 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@rrizo6846]

buy XRP will be better then bitCON

[@HadrianReed]

Thanks for the breakdown! Just a quick off-topic question: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). What's the best way to send them to Binance?

[@AJsBoxes]

Are you serious?

[@MassMonsta]

Bitcoin, the future of finance. Lolz 😂

[@thatsreelcreative]

I lost 6.6 Bitcoin. People don't remember the crash of 2018 which plummeted the price from $20,000 to 3,000. Please don't buy now. It will most likely hit $100,000 then keep going upwards until a more natural settlement comes in around Jan. I see people buying now and I'm like 1. Bitcoin is extremely overvalued 2. no one is even using it for anything it just sits there 3. it's probably the slowest and worst out of the all the cryptos in terms of speed etc but this is going to lead to The Mark of the Beast.
