In 2013, a Norwegian man discovered he had forgotten about 5,000 Bitcoins he bought in 2009 for just $27. When he remembered years later, his small investment was worth nearly $900,000—enough to buy an apartment in Oslo! 🏠💰

If you were to start a new business today, what would it be?

My parents were there when they did the big $8B IMF deal in 2023 and their pound devalued dramatically overnight (went from 30 to 50 pounds per dollar literally overnight).

Scary for people to wake up and their savings be that dramatically impacted.

Also, how do you function a business with interest rates at 25-30%?

Super interesting. I've also found the history of Rome related to clipping gold coins interesting. People would clip or shave tiny amounts off coins, melt them together and sell them.
