What? Why is not just the BTC given back? Hilarious.
Home invaders used machete, Toblerone to rob a man of his #Bitcoin in 2020. 23.5 btc in total taken. Suspects apprehended and Bitcoin recovered BUT.....
"Lawyers at Edinburgh’s High Court agreed on Sept. 3 that the 23.5 BTC could be converted into cash for a total sum of $144,017 (109,601 British pounds).
The sum is around 10% of the current value of 23.5 BTC but is in line with the time of the robbery when Bitcoin was trading at around $5,400.
Who gets to keep the rest!? Give me a break 🤦

It's the same accounting trick that FTX users get....usd value at time of event is returned. Sucks for hodlers
