A British man spent 12 years searching for a lost hard drive that was believed to contain thousands of Bitcoins.
The hard drive was accidentally thrown away in 2013 during a cleanup.
After that, he repeatedly requested permission to search the landfill, but courts denied the requests each time due to environmental and public safety risks.
Experts say that the chances of recovering the Bitcoins decreased every year because of damage to the hard drive and data degradation.
This incident highlights the irreversible nature of
digital assets and the critical importance of secure storage.
The story also shows why user education and caution are essential when dealing with cryptocurrency.
