British investor thought he lost $2,000 in bitcoin in 2012. He just recovered $4.5 million
AI EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
A British investor who believed he had lost a small amount of bitcoin more than a decade ago has successfully recovered a digital wallet holding thousands of coins currently valued in the millions. Legal representatives stated the funds were traced back to users of an early cryptocurrency exchange called Intersango.
