British Man Recovers 61 Bitcoins Worth $4.4 Million
A British man named Chris has recovered 61 Bitcoins, valued at approximately $4.4 million, after a 12-year legal battle following the closure of the cryptocurrency exchange Intersango in 2014. Chris purchased these Bitcoins in 2011 and left them in the exchange's custody, without transferring them to a self-custody wallet. Intersango, formerly known as Britcoin, was one of the first exchanges in the UK to offer Bitcoin trading in pounds. Ryan Sweetnam, the financial litigation director at CEL Solicitors, assisted in recovering the assets, with the firm taking four months to submit the necessary documents to a U.S. court, ultimately completing the return through negotiation. Chris stated that he now opens the wallet containing the Bitcoins about 20 times a day.

August CPI to Lock In Next Week’s Hike Pricing | WEEX TradFi Daily(September 11, 2026)
Global markets on September 11 focus on August CPI. Brent crude holds $100–$107, the 10-year yield jumps first to about 4.94%, and hike odds are pushed to about 70%–74%. On September 10 ET the S&P 500 fell 0.58%, the Nasdaq 0.65% and the Dow 0.60%. Bitcoin broke below $77,000 and Ethereum slipped near $2,440; gold and silver also came under pressure. This is a liquidity squeeze, not an internal crypto blow-up. Apple shares recovered after its foldable launch, and AeroVironment bounced after hours on a beat.
