Bitcoin had a feature in 2009 so dangerous Satoshi himself deleted it after one user pointed it out
In the original version of Bitcoin you could send coins directly to someone's IP address
There was no wallet address needed and even worse, your computer would connect to theirs to send the coins through
That meant anyone could see your IP, locate your machine and try to attack it just by sending you Bitcoin
On January 14, 2009 Satoshi decided to test it himself and emailed an early miner named Dustin Trammell asking for his IP
Trammell replied and actually sent it to him
A few minutes later Satoshi connected and sent him 25 BTC with a message that said "Hello"
Trammell answered him with a warning that the feature was insecure and within weeks Satoshi deleted it from Bitcoin entirely
Those 25 BTC would be worth $1.86 million today
