Make us part of your weekend routine on Bloomberg Television, radio. and wherever you get your podcasts. My mind at this moment is running millions of miles per second. I mean, I'm telling you, now I had to figure out my next move.

Because they had me. You know, they caught me. There was no talking out of it. Ki-I-I-Tel. And I'm Bradstone. And on March 6, we're back with a new season of decrypted. We'll bring you stories about the dirty underworld of corporate spies. Everybody hears about, like, someone breaking the window and stealing laptops.

Like that's almost like a cliche. What people hear less about is like black mask, kind of the tool to break in the door, directed attack, two minutes in and out, that whole thing. The volatile rise of a new form of money. How much Bitcoin do you estimate you gave away during that period? Thousands and thousands. Of Bitcoin. Of full bitcoins, yeah, thousands and thousands.

More than 10,000, I would guess. 10,000 Bitcoin would be worth what? $5 million, right? No, no, no, it would be worth $50 million. A quiet power broker for startups. I don't think VCs are trying to screw up those businesses intentionally. But the reality is, it's like if someone gives you a million dollars and says, like, go, like, do what you want. It's like a drug, and they learn to operate as a company that has the means to do things that they maybe shouldn't be doing.

And the consequences of irrevocable decisions. It's when I spiral. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's when I've really lost it. And I just started hacking the planet, man.
