The Rules

Posts must be:

Links to news stories from...
...credible sources, with...
...their original headlines, that...
...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

Yeah, he is only interested in recovering it for personal gain. If that guy found his drive, it would harm Bitcoin price and hence, credibility

A billion dollars worth of bitcoin isn't that much of the total amount of bitcoin any more, so any impact on the price would be because of people reacting emotionally to the news, not because they're was suddenly a flood of extra bitcoin in circulation.
