What sucks is not knowing where your wallet is.

I have .9 of a bitcoin somewhere transferred between a Linux PC and three different phones over two or three years.

I have about $28 US somewhere.

I had this sort of issue. Back in 2010 I had mined a hundred coins (CPU mined, back in those days, lol). A month ago I decided to find the wallet file, took me 2 hours to search 5 HDDs with multiple partitions each from my old computers...

I fixed this problem now by printing the keys out, storing them securely in a safe and deleting the wallet files.

Better luck than me. I've 500BTC that I mined and gave up on. They'd be worth $26k if I hadn't decided to clean out my backup RAID.

How bitcoin is worse than cash in this regard?

I can search my apartment and find the cash fairly reliably :)

You can make a physical coin out of bitcoin.
