Looks like they found some of the ‘lost’ bitcoin and the founder will get to keep them.

Thank you. That helps me feel a bit better :)

Though wasn't the Mt Gox loss around 7% of all bitcoins at the time? If so, higher probability to not be part of the loss

Eh all the noobs bought there though

Except there are many people who bought at Mt. Gox and then withdrew the coins and didn't lose them. If you don't hold the private keys, you don't own the Bitcoin. Still true today.

The "lost" bitcoins would be worth around $15B today. :O

The first bitcoin I had was from a faucet. I kept it on an on-line wallet. That whole website was hacked. Luckily I learned from my mistakes early before Mt. Gox.

Couldn't they have moved them to a wallet and not held with Mt. Gox?

My AMD GPU mined a 25 BTC block as part of a mining pool. I ended up mining about 1 BTC overall that summer. Oh, and I bought first-gen ASIC hardware instead of Bitcoin before the run up to $1200. https://bitminter.com/block/btc/000000000000000d42bf885bff35d515b2a7b5563d001b3c342e5b881edb5553 …

I downloaded an online Bitcoin wallet in 2012 with the intent to purchase but thought you could buy it through the wallet. After 15 mins I said f* it and gave up. Never give up, kids

Or you would have been Verned at cryptsy, or taken a haircut when you were finexed or just been stupid and lost it all somehow. Those who have held BTC for a while have earned their profit, and then some.
