#CreatorPad James Howells, the British man who accidentally threw away a hard drive containing 8,000 BTC, has officially given up the search.

After years of fighting for permission to dig up a landfill in Newport, he's ending the mission.

Those coins are now worth over 900 million and join the estimated 2.3 to 3.7 million BTC believed to be lost forever.

would you have given up the search ???❗
