 Bryan has just purchased another 3 Bitcoin at a purchase price of 58k and now holds 420 bitcoins.

Do you believe me?

If so, and I am allowing a custodian to secure my bitcoin, do you believe they have put an extra 3 into my “account?”

In short, there are only 21 million Bitcoin, UNLESS 1000s of people unknowingly have multiple claims on the same coins due to FRAUD.
