Mark Zuckerberg stole Facebook from them. So they sued him for $65 million. Now they're crypto billionaires. Lessons from the wild story of the Winklevoss twins: Let's start with betrayal.

In 2008, the Winklevoss twins settled for $65 million, but they weren't done yet—this was just the beginning. The twins kept their Facebook stock, turning $45 million into $200 million by 2012, benefiting from Zuckerberg's success. In 2013, the Winklevoss twins invested heavily in Bitcoin, believing it would surpass Facebook's success.

In 2015, the twins launched Gemini, a regulated crypto exchange for digital currencies. Gemini brought trust to the crypto world. Follow for more valuable content.
