For the past year or so, it's been impossible to run around the internet without bumping into a bitcoin, a website about bitcoin, or someone talking about bloody blockchains again. It's actually getting pretty boring, to be honest. Having said that, there is something here that you really don't see every day: an actual bitcoin in the flesh. So let's get to the important stuff, where and how were these coins found?
According to the rumor, a church found one of these in their collection plate one day, back before bitcoin exploded in both popularity and value. The church would be mega rich by now if the priest hadn't spent it on a pack of cigarettes and a case of Smirnoff Ice. Also if a solid bitcoin wasn't just a symbolic token and technically worthless. What a huge shocker!
