After 12 years, James Howells â the guy who accidentally threw away a hard drive containing 8,000 BTC back in 2013 â has officially ended his search.
He spent over a decade trying to recover it from a landfill in Wales. Teams, legal battles, robots, funding... all of it. And now, heâs done.
8000 Bitcoin. Worth around $950 million today. Gone.
Sometimes the wildest crypto story isnât about a rugpull or a moonshot â itâs about a mistake that never got undone.
đ„ My portfolio 2021, 2023, and 2024 â ïž đ¶ Me pretending that everything is under control Welcome to the crypto world â where emotional pain comes in daily candles. đ
đ§ââïžRemember: if youâre still holding, you haven't lost... youâre just emotionally committed.
đž DCA until hope returns. đ Portfolio is down, but the good mood remains strong. đą One day we will get there or not

#bob Alert đšđšđš A visual bug appeared in my app, could it be a prediction of the future of this coin? Put one thing in your head, meme coins are pure speculation, they are good for nothing, make money with them and get out. I've been in this market since 2014 and I've seen many coins appreciate and then die, that's the cycle of practically 90% of meme coins, so I only put in money that I won't miss. Do you remember the launch of $TRUMP ? everyone bought and it never went up again, remember BRET, DOG, MODENDENG, GOAT, DOGEGOV, BROCOLLI, POPCAT, dog coins, cat coins, the entire Noah's Ark coins never returned to their previous prices đ€ Don't be a fan of coins, set a goal, make money and accumulate capital; greed is the ruin of the investor đ In 2014 I became a millionaire with cryptocurrencies and I didn't realize profits, the market fell and I believed it would come back, some coins from that time donât even exist anymore, platforms, brokers, cloud miners, closed without giving explanations, I didn't know how the market worked, I was a fan, a dreamer, and not an investor đ I understood that for me to win, someone has to lose; in 2014 I was the liquidity of the market and after that I learned through pain how to behave in a risky and volatile market. đ Donât use leverage đ Donât be greedy đ Donât be a fanatic fan, the coin doesnât even know you exist! đ Donât do day trading, the chance of you going broke is 99%
Are you in profit? Realize it đ” even if it's partially đ€ Are you in loss? Improve your average price, not happy with the coin? Sell, take the loss and switch to a stronger and less volatile coin.âĄ
Have risk management, accept your losses and your gains, đ«”YOU and your family are depending on your success, make decisions with wisdom and discipline đ
I swore I wouldn't buy anything else until I recover the investment I had.. this game of losses doesn't work for me!! It's only 60 dollars but I want to recover it... Before putting a lot of money here and regretting it all $SUI Where are you?
