Imagine throwing away a hard drive… and realizing it contains $700 MILLION.
That’s what happened to British IT worker James Howells.
In 2013, he accidentally threw away a hard drive containing the private key to 7,500 $BITCOIN
Then came the nightmare:
The hard drive ended up in a landfill.
For years, Howells tried to get permission to search the landfill and recover it.
Think about it…
7,500 Bitcoin sitting somewhere under mountains of garbage.
Not hacked.
Not stolen.
Just… buried.
And all because of one mistake. ₿
