🪙 Owner of a rare Casascius coin transfers 25 BTC for the first time in 12 years



The owner of a physical Casascius coin with a face value of 25 BTC decided to peel off the protective hologram and transfer the bitcoins to a new wallet. In the early 2010s, the coin held 25 BTC, which were worth less than $100 at the time, but today their value is estimated at $1,800,000.

However, peeling off the hologram has stripped the coin of its collectible value. Now it is no longer considered a "untouched" artifact that collectors would be willing to pay significantly more for than the bitcoins themselves.
