10 years ago, the world's biggest Bitcoin exchange, MtGox, was hacked for approximately 850,000 BTC, valued at $450 million at the time. Since then, BTC has seen a return on investment (ROI) of over 9000%. The collapse of MtGox led to questions about the future of Bitcoin, with some merchants still accepting it despite the turmoil.
