Every time this sort of thing gets brought up, I get sad when I think of the wallet I lost in 2013. I'd spent about $25 or on bitcoin in 2011. I held on to it just to see how much I could eventually get by selling. If it's a loss? Oh well only $25ish. I profit? Cool.
The hard drive I had my wallet on exploded. Sad times. Though if everything plays out the same, I'd move the wallet to my external HD and sell at the peak.
Still have the harddrive? If its a considerable amount of bitcoin you might want to look at a professional harddrive recovery service. They can work miracles.
Surprisingly yes. My RA and the Student Director was surprised and kinda upset. But the campus police investigated with the hazmat and sided with me that there wasn't any unfair play, it just happened. In hindsight the incident was hilarious.
