The Brit who lost millions in bitcoins by throwing away his hard drive isn't giving up: he's now suing the city council 😬

James Howells, a computer engineer who lives in the city of Newport, Wales, has been claiming for years that in 2013 he threw away a hard drive with around 8,000 bitcoins, which he had managed to mine at home shortly after the cryptocurrency came to light in 2009. At that time, before the latest price increases, this man already had a small fortune resting in a municipal landfill, but today his cryptocurrencies, if they exist, are worth more than 400 million euros. #BTC☀ $BTC
