There was a guy named Alex who was always trying to impress his friends with his tech knowledge. Back in 2013, he learned about Bitcoin and told everyone, “This is the future of money! I’m going all in!”

To show off, Alex bought 100 BTC and threw a party, bragging to everyone about his “revolutionary” investment. When someone asked him where he was storing it, he waved it off, saying, “Security is for amateurs. I keep it all in one place on my phone for easy access!”

A few weeks later, Alex decided he wanted to show a friend how much his Bitcoin had gone up. He pulled out his phone, only to find it had mysteriously reset, wiping out everything on it — including his precious Bitcoin wallet. Panicked, he spent hours trying every recovery trick, to no avail.

He had to go back to his friends and sheepishly admit he’d lost it all. His friends, who had been skeptical about Bitcoin anyway, never let him live it down. To this day, they call him “One-Click Alex” and tell everyone not to trust him with anything valuable.
