This dude sold 10,000 BTC after 14 yrs today, bought it for $0.78 per bitcoin back in 2011. The amount of patience it takes remains unmatched.

The fact he was not hurt in any of the hacks (especially Mt Gox) by now is what's truly astonishing. 

But also... cool 1B.

haven't even thought about that. No "this tx is likely to fail" and whatnot. And people still say "why didn't I buy back then?"

1. It was incredibly risky
2. No one knew about it (save for some cypherpunks, people buying on the Silkroad and luckily, some poker players)
3. your bank would probably freeze the tx
4. you'd probably lose it in a bad tx, bad copy paste, hack, government freeze or something similar.

My guess is this guy probably lost his mnemonics since recently
