@scriptsorcerer2: James Howells, an IT worker from Newport, lost 8,000 Bitcoins in 2013 when he accidentally discarded a hard drive containing the private keys. Back then, Bitcoin was worth just $8 million, but its value soared to $742 million. Howells, realizing his mistake, embarked on a mission to recover the drive from a Newport landfill. His ambitious plan included Al-powered drones and robots, but local authorities and legal regulations prevented him from accessing the landfill. In 2024, a British judge dismissed his case, ruling that the recovery efforts were unlikely to succeed. Despite this, Howells' journey continues, with a documentary, The Buried Bitcoin: The Real-Life Treasure Hunt of James Howells, set for release in late 2025. #LostBitcoin #CryptoRecovery #bitcoin #crypto #fyp
