They used some of their $65 million settlement to stockpile bitcoin & in 2014 they founded their own cryptocurrency exchange

Today’s Jeopardy! contestants:

Stephanie Rozman, a publications manager & editor from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Stephanie Rozman on Jeopardy!

Michael DiSciullo, a real estate agent from Austin, Texas

Michael DiSciullo on Jeopardy!

Andrew Hayes, a law student originally from Tupelo, Mississippi (2-day total: $45,401)

Andrew Hayes on Jeopardy!

Andy’s Pregame Thoughts:

Andrew Hayes did his postseason qualification chances a world of help yesterday by being the only player to get Final Jeopardy correct, bringing his chances of making it to Champions Wildcard up to 58.48% at this point. Today, he goes for win #3 against Pittsburgh’s Stephanie Rozman and Austin’s Michael DiSciullo.

I do want to at least mention that a Los Angeles court did rule yesterday that Sony is now allowed to take the role of CBS (formerly King World) in distributing the show to local stations. Again, this should have no material effect at this point on how anyone watches the show

More information about Final Jeopardy:

(The following write-up is original content and is copyright 2025 The Jeopardy! Fan. It may not be copied without linked attribution back to this page.)

In 2004, Cameron & Tyler Winklevoss sued Mark Zuckerberg, the founder of Facebook, claiming that Zuckerberg had stolen the brothers’ idea of “ConnectU” in creating Facebook. After competing in rowing in the 2008 Beijing Olympics, they later founded the Gemini cryptocurrency exchange; Gemini has seen a number of legal battles over the years, including a 2023 lawsuit by the state of New York. They also used the money from the Facebook settlement to stockpile bitcoin; the brothers are still among the people with the largest share of that cryptocurrency.
