This might be the wildest Bitcoin story of the year.

An Irish drug dealer bought around 6,000 $BTC in 2011 and hid the paper keys inside a fishing rod case.

Then he got arrested. His landlord cleared out his stuff and tossed the keys. Gone.

The coins sat frozen for years. Until now.

With help from Europol, Irish authorities broke into the wallets without ever finding those keys. They've pulled out 1,500 BTC this year, the latest 500 just today.

About 4,500 BTC, worth over $270 million, are still sitting there.
