Wow, that's crazy. He stole 800k worth of Bitcoin and that's worth 90 mil now. He said he doesn't think he'll ever get over it. I don't think he's talking about ripping off the investors, though. I think he's talking about stealing Bitcoin in the first place. As an early adopter he had a good opportunity to make a hell of a lot of money.
