Lost 8,000 $BTC Forever? 💸
A British court has dismissed James Howells’ lawsuit to excavate a landfill in search of a hard drive holding 8,000 BTC (worth $740M today) that he dumped in 2013.
Howells accidentally threw out the drive containing BTC he mined in 2009, and Newport authorities have refused his repeated excavation requests.
One mistake, and a fortune is gone-forever? 🤯
