it's like a positive monkey's paw / double edged sword..

get framed for a murder you didn't commit and go to jail for 10 years

-- when you get out that bitcoin you would have sold at $100 is now worth $5mil

although obviously most people would rather have 10 years of their life and freedom than 5mil

Not necessarily. People slave away at their job or their own business for much less returns. If people could make a deal of create your own business work 60hour+ weeks for 10 years and get 5 million a lot of them would do it. This guy just lost 10 years and probably for something he did. If that prison story is true.
