James Howells, a British man, became widely known for accidentally discarding a hard drive containing 8,000 Bitcoins in 2013. In a BBC interview, he revealed that at the time, one Bitcoin was valued at $170. Today, the 8,000 Bitcoins he lost are worth approximately $800 million. For the past 11 years, Howells has been searching landfills for the hard drive. He has offered a 25% reward of his lost fortune to anyone—individual, company, or government—that successfully finds it.
