Didi Taihuttu, who lives in the Netherlands, has sold all of his possessions, including his car, home and bikes, trading in his material goods for cryptocurrencies in the hope that selling off the investment when the crypto market booms will make him a very rich man.
\r\nTaihuttu sold his home and moved his wife and children to an island, where they will wait to see if his bet pays off. He said that when he first announced his decision, his wife and kids were highly sceptical about the idea but that they have reportedly since changed their minds and now fully support the plan.
\r\nTaihuttu said that his family had an adventurous spirit and tended to follow their feelings and that he hoped that their decision to follow the \"feeling\" that they could win big from the monetary revolution, which will hopefully occur as a result of cryptocurrencies, would pay off.
\r\nTaihuttu began investing in Bitcoin in 2010. He decided to sell off his business and travel with his family after the death of his father in 2016. Taihuttu said that he and his family had drawn up longterm plans, planning to sell more possessions and to invest in Bitcoin until 2020.
