Back in 2011, my friend Jake bought 50 Bitcoins for the price of a fancy coffee, mostly out of curiosity. He stored them on an old laptop and promptly forgot about them as life moved on. Fast forward to 2017, and Bitcoin's value skyrocketed. Jake suddenly remembered his digital stash. Frantically searching through his attic, he found the dusty laptop, but it wouldn't turn on. After several trips to tech repair shops and a few DIY attempts, the laptop finally booted up. There they were—50 Bitcoins, now worth a small fortune. Jake couldn't believe it. What started as a whimsical experiment turned into a life-changing windfall, all thanks to a forgotten laptop and a bit of luck.
