Being Able To View Your BTC Wallet Worth $162 Million But Not Being Able To Access It Is A Level Of Hell I Never Wish To Visit
We've all felt pain before. A breakup. A death of a loved one. The loss of a dog. Accidentally clicking on a Nate blog. Things we wouldn't wish on our worst enemy. But nothing, and I mean nothing, is worse than that tweet up there. Seeing your old BTC wallet worth over $160 million but not having access to it is a level of pain, a level of hell, that I never want to visit. A feeling so helpless it would alter my brain chemistry forever. I'd be at the mall and be thinking about that wallet. I'd be shopping for groceries, buying the generic version of Cheerios, thinking about that wallet. The world around me would be in black and white. Music would sound like static. Rainbows wouldn't exist. Life would be a nonstop plane ride of crying babies. I don't think I'd ever get over it.
The worst part is being able to see it and do nothing about it. It's like an episode of Black Mirror where someone is tortured for eternity. Nobody is making him look at the wallet, but how can you not?
For those wondering, it's likely he lost his passwords to his wallet. If you don't write those down and keep them safe in multiple places, you could end up like Griffin. Honestly the most stressful part of owning BTC is owning BTC. I need to write down my info for when I get run over by a bus Liz style but don't survive. I should probably do that after writing this blog. I won't. But I probably should.
$162 million in lost Bitcoin, man. I guess that's just part of life, right? Like, we all face adversity. We all take bumps in life. It comes at everyone in different ways. Sort of the human experience- you never know what your fate will be. Some of the richest people are the saddest. Some of the best looking people have the lowest self esteem. And some of the earliest people to Bitcoin have no way of accessing it. Life is a tricky, cruel bitch, and it comes for everyone.
PS: In movies there's always one guy who can do the impossible hacking job. Like some Men In Black type of guy who can do what you're not supposed to be able to do. I wonder if there's someone who can access this. Someone at Area 51 who is coding things so top secret our minds can't even begin to understand it. Unfortunately he's probably keeping the world spinning or some shit and can't take a day off to get Griffin his $162 million...but maybe if the Area 51 guy sees this, he'll make a call. Just make sure I get my 10% finder's fee.
