Buried deep in a Welsh landfill, beneath layers of years-old garbage, there is a hard drive that holds the key to almost $800 million in bitcoin – or so James Howells believes, after accidentally throwing the drive away in 2013.
At this point even if he finds the drive I can’t imagine it’s survived this long in a dump. No reason to throw good money after bad just to find a dead drive. Although I imagine at this point it’s so emotionally charged that there’s not a lot of logical decision making being made.
