Lost things.

▫️ How have you lost things and what happened to them?

▫️ Tell us about the most surprising or curious case when you lost something valuable or simply necessary.

This probably won’t surprise anyone as most of my stories involve crypto, and this story involves lost ( inaccessible ) tokens. 😆

Years ago, I bought 1000 KNC tokens at around $0.65 a token on Coinbase and a short time later staked it in the KyberDao. After some time the KNC token began to appreciate in price and was trading between $3 - $4. 

At this point I decided to unstake all my KNC tokens and sent it to Coinbase to swap for USDC. Unstaking went smoothly, and I sent the tokens back to Coinbase. A day later when the tokens didn’t show up in my wallet I became alarmed and began trying to unravel this mystery. 🙁🙁🙁

To make a long story short, when I purchased the tokens on CB they were V1. While staking they were automatically converted to V2. When I sent the tokens back to CB , V2 tokens were not supported yet, only V1 ! 😅

Over a year later when CB began supporting V2 tokens , they showed up in my wallet. Opportunity lost as KNC was trading at about $1 again ! 🤷‍♂️
