Nhà đầu tư Anh khôi phục lại bitcoin bị mất từ năm 2012 trị giá 4,5 triệu USD

The Huoxing Finance report, citing CoinDesk, states that a UK investor purchased Bitcoin in 2011 through the UK exchange Britcoin (later renamed Intersango) for less than $4, investing approximately £1,500 (~$2,000). The exchange ceased trading by the end of 2012 and went offline in early 2014, after which the investor lost access to his wallet. For over a decade, he watched Bitcoin’s price surge, believing he had permanently lost this wealth. The law firm CEL Solicitors, using cryptocurrency tracking software from its sister company, identified a wallet believed to belong to an Intersango user containing over 5,500 BTC (~$421 million). The investor successfully recovered approximately $45,000 worth of Bitcoin, which is now valued at around $4.5 million. The law firm stated that other former Intersango users may also reclaim their funds if they can prove ownership.
