Doomscrolled so hard you found the story of a legendary lost BTC wallet. ๐
Donโt know it? Hereโs the full story.
Back in 2013, Welsh IT engineer James Howells accidentally threw away a hard drive containing 7,500โ8,000 BTC. ๐ฟ
Today, that stash would be worth hundreds of millions of dollars. ๐คฏ
The problem?
The drive is believed to be buried somewhere in a massive landfill in Newport, Wales.
For more than 12 years, Howells has tried everything to recover it:
๐ Hiring data recovery specialists
๐ค Proposing AI-powered scanning to locate the drive
๐ฐ Offering the city 30% of the recovered Bitcoin
But the local council keeps saying no, citing environmental risks.
The hard drive is likely buried under thousands of tonnes of waste. ๐๏ธ
Some estimates say the odds of finding it are lower than winning the lottery.
Yet after more than a decadeโฆ
the search still continues.
๐ญ What would you do if you had hundreds of millions in BTC buried in a landfill?
