💰 Still chasing $915 million in Bitcoin just differently.
James Howells, the UK man who accidentally threw out a hard drive containing 8,000 BTC back in 2013, is not giving up.
After years of battling to excavate a Newport landfill and being shut down by local authorities, Howells is now tokenizing his legal ownership of the lost bitcoin.
🔹 He plans to launch a Layer 2 token called Ceiniog Coin (INI) 🔹 Backed by 8,000 BTC (yes, over $900M) 🔹 ICO coming later this year 🔹 Backed by a High Court ruling confirming legal ownership
“The Council may own the hard drive,” he says, “but not the digital contents.”
A bold pivot from landfill digging to blockchain building. 🧠⚖️ #CryptoNews #BTC

🪙 UPDATE: James Howells Takes a New Turn in His Quest for 8,000 Lost $BTC (~$900M)
After years of failed efforts to excavate a landfill in search of his lost hard drive, James Howells is now pivoting to a digital first recovery plan.
He plans to tokenize his legal claim to the 8,000 $BTC via a smart contract on Bitcoin, allowing on chain ownership of the rightseven though he still doesn’t have access to the actual coins.
This means:
No private keys or recovery yet
Just legal claim ownership, now mirrored on chain
A novel case of tokenizing potential value
If successful, this could open up a new precedent for lost asset claims, ownership rights, and legal tokenization on Bitcoin.
Would you invest in a token backed only by legal hope? 🤔
Bitcoin is still respecting its higher low structure and now testing a key resistance at $116K A successful breakout here could launch price towards $118.7K and potentially $120.7K next!
But if the breakout fails? We could see a pullback to $114.5K, or even a deeper dip into the Fair Value Gap around $110K
#bitcoin has now established a fresh resistance zone between 114,800 115,100. We saw a breakout attempt but it turned out to be a false breakout, meaning the structure hasn’t confirmed just yet.
📌 Until we get a clear break above this zone, long positions remain high risk.
🔥At the moment, both long and short entries are risky unless you're already in from 112,000 113,000. In that case, it’s wise to move your stop to breakeven and manage risk carefully.
📈 Outlook Ahead: • $ETH eyeing a potential retest of the $4K zone, its mid-term high. • But before liftoff, a healthy pullback towards $3.6K ،$3.5K looks likely.
📊 Traders: Watch for strong demand in that correction zone. A rebound could set the stage for the next leg up #ETH
