š„British Manās $660M Bitcoin Treasure Hunt Heads to Europeās Highest Courtš„
James Howells has been on a decade-long quest for a lost hard drive buried deep in a Newport landfill ā one that holds the keys to 8,000 BTC (worth over $660 million).
After countless failed attempts and a final blow from the UK Court of Appeal ā which dismissed his case as having āno realistic chance of successā ā Howells is taking his battle to the European Court of Human Rights. He argues his rights to property and a fair trial have been denied.
But time is running outā¦ The landfill may shut down entirely by 2025ā2026.
Youāve got to wonder ā with all the money poured into this epic search, how much Bitcoin could he have just *bought* instead?
