Ha! I tell myself exactly the same thing, I even registered to Mt Gox (which I think - my memory is not to clear - included sending some identification papers) to finally just chickening out when it was time to put my money by instead asking my non-tech family what I should do - which of course was not to put money in that weird thing.

Now, I half have a large regret and half tell myself that I would have lost it all anyway.

The price of bitcoin went up so much after mtgox went bankrupt that the bitcoin the bankrupcy trustee has found is currently worth about $2.8 billion.

At some point in the next year or two, up to 90% of that will be returned to the 25,000 creditors who filled in the paperwork to make a claim years ago.

Haha. I lost all my bitcoin stored on a personal wallet. Doesn't even have to be Mt. Gox
