“UK singer Lily Allen regrets turning down a gig that would’ve earned her a Bitcoin fortune. The offer to stream a performance live on Second Life came ‘about 5 years ago,’ and the payoff was ‘hundreds of thousands of bitcoins,’ Allen revealed in a tweet Sunday. Though Allen’s decision to turn down this offer sounds crazy today, five years ago one bitcoin was worth practically nothing, as there was no market or exchanges to sell it. The cryptocurrency’s price has been extremely volatile in 2013, skyrocketing to $1,200 at one point before falling down to sub-$1000 range.”
