No they didn't; they bought when it was under $10. http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/the-switch/wp/2013/11/09/the-11-million-in-bitcoins-the-winklevoss-brothe

  According to that exact article they bought when it was $266. It's completely baseless that they bought earlier, and by current prices they're still making a loss ($256 USD). Which isn't to speak of the fact that it's almost impossible for them to realize a sale value of $256 in the first place.

    Try re-reading the article with better comprehension. There is a difference between "buying" and "announcing that you bought."

      And there's a big difference between what you claim they did, and what it is possible for you to know based on publicly available information.
