During the ongoing 2021 Bitcoin conference, Tony Hawk revealed that he purchased bitcoin first in 2012 after watching how it works on the Silk Road. He added that he had kept most of his holdings aside from donating some BTC to charity organizations.
“I didn’t do much with it, I was watching it mostly.” – he added, but he donated four bitcoins to a charity organization in 2012. Nevertheless, he ironically said, “I wish I held to that, though.”
