Exactly fourteen years ago, a trader on the Bitcoin forum was dismissed simply for offering four Apple iTunes gift cards worth US$60 each in exchange for one Bitcoin (BTC). The problem was, at that time, the price of one coin was only around US$5.
The post immediately triggered responses from other users questioning the legitimacy of the offer. The transaction was considered suspicious because the exchange rate was highly disproportionate, where at that price, he should have received 12 BTC, not just 1.
“This feels too good to be true,” wrote one of the forum users built by Satoshi.
In response to the doubts, the trader confirmed that the gift cards were genuine and unused, and he just wanted to sell quickly without lengthy negotiations. A few moments later, he confirmed the transaction was complete.
Now, considering Bitcoin's price is around US$79,000 per coin, and even touched US$126,000 in October 2025, how drastic the increase in the value of the trader’s crypto assets would be if he still held onto them.
