Title: The Man Who Lost $315 Million... in the Trash
Post:
This isn’t fiction — it’s a real-life crypto story!
Back in 2013, James Howells — an IT guy from Wales 🧑💻 — made a tiny mistake...
He accidentally threw away a hard drive that held 7,500 BTC! ₿💸
At that time, Bitcoin was worth just a few dollars.
He only realized after the trash truck had gone...
That little device was now buried deep in a massive landfill 🗑️ in Newport, UK.
Since then, James has offered millions in funding 💰, proposed robot dog scanners 🤖, and even AI systems 🧠
All to recover that hard drive.
But the city said NO due to environmental concerns ❌
Today, those 7,500 BTC are worth over $315 million 🚀
And the drive? Still lost in the garbage heap.
James says:
> “I’ve never given up hope. One day, I’ll find it.” ✨
This story is a hard lesson for all crypto users:
Not your keys, not your coins. 🔐
Backup. Store safe. Think long-term. ✅
